(en noun)

(historical) A ring.

* 1878 , Royal Numismatic Society (Great Britain), The Numismatic chronicle and journal of the Numismatic Society :

It was a mark of nobility among the German races — by some considered the origin of our coronets — and had even about it a quasi-religious character in memory of the "holy beag " (holy ring), the oath upon which was tantamount to the oath upon Thorr's hammer.

* 1970 , William A. Chaney, The cult of kingship in Anglo-Saxon England :

[...] and the description of that monarch in his anonymous Vita'' as ''coronatus lauro'' probably indicates a beag which was lighter than the formal ''diadema .
