A 17th century gold ring discovered by a metal detectorist near Loch Lomond could fetch about £10,000 at auction.

Michelle Vall from Blackpool made the discovery when she searched the shore near Duck Bay near Balloch in West Dunbartonshire in January.

She had taken up the hobby two years ago to deal with panic attacks that left her confined to her home.

The ring has been dated from between 1640 and 1680, once belonging to a courtier of James II from Suffolk.

What a great story, even having details of the family whose crest is on the ring. Many thanks.
I used to have an issue regarding having an inferiority complex, I no longer have an issue with being inferior.
