Great reference and research work Nando, it is true that these rings where most likely not thrown at the agressor. Even when they are new, they wouldn't benefit from falling because of the outer crust which had a final layer of pitch and blackpowder. This would form a hard outer layer.

Great piece my friend, also a very neat looking display
I am happy it went to your collection where it will be preserved.
