Commentary


Ce type exact semble manquer aux ouvrages consultés. Le droit est proche des sceattas de la série K (n° 797), alors que le revers s’assimile plutôt à la série G (n° 808). Il s’agit des “Secondary Sceattas, c. 710-760” du classement du “Standard Catalogue of British Coins”.
This exact type seems to be missing from the works consulted. The obverse is close to the sceattas of series K (no. 797), while the reverse is more similar to series G (no. 808). These are the “Secondary Sceattas, c. 710-760” in the classification of the “Standard Catalogue of British Coins”

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.
