A more probable ID of the ring is it could have been a retaining ring for example, the butt of a handle or a cane tip so the wood or whatever could not split. Darn, not Bronze Age but still old. HH, Mike

A friend posted these examples of the ring I found and the usage of it. It dates from the 1400s to the 1500s. HH, Mike
