Commentary


Si ce revers est assez classique, le style de la tête ne correspond pas à celui qui lui est traditionnellement associé. Les monnaies n° 190-193 d’Oxford ont ce revers mais avec un avers dit “plumed bird”. Il s’agit pourtant plus vraisemblablement d’une tête hirsute avec l'œil triangulaire marqué (cf. les bronzes LA TOUR 6117 et 6132).
Selon les classement, il s'agirait d’un hybride avec un avers “later procupines” un revers de la série E variété G1-4 (cf. Metcalf p. 217).
While this reverse is fairly classic, the style of the head does not correspond to that traditionally associated with it. Oxford coins no. 190-193 have this reverse but with an obverse called “plumed bird”. However, it is more likely a hirsute head with a marked triangular eye (cf. the LA TOUR bronzes 6117 and 6132). According to classification, this would be a hybrid with a “later procupines” obverse, a reverse of the E series variety G1-4 (cf. Metcalf p. 217)

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.
