Retro 9ct Gold Signet Ring with Lion Intaglio

197Y
200 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A good quality heavy gauge 9ct gold signet ring that was assayed in Birmingham in 1947. It has an intaglio of a lion rampant with the words above “nil admirar” which translates “To be surprised at nothing”.

A bold saying for a confident person perhaps!
