Commentary
Le revers avec les quatre T au revers semble très rare ; cette variante manquerait à l’ouvrage de T. Abramson.
The reverse with the four T's on the reverse seems very rare; this variant would be missing from T. Abramson's work

Historical background
ENGLAND - ANGLO-SAXONS
(7th - 8th centuries)
If the minting of these coins is to be located at the beginning of the 8th century, in Great Britain, it is not exceptional to find them in Gaul. They are often confused with Merovingian silver coins (cf. MONNAIES XIX, n° 503, sceattas c. 680-710, classified in Merovingian denier of Laon). During the 8th century, the style of these pieces is more and more degenerated, they are often in ridge or filled. These coins disappeared from circulation in the second half of the 8th century.
