Description: | Bird-on-cross Series B sceat Type BIa, no pellets surrounding the bird but two annulets evenly positioned level with the arms of the central cross. This closely resembles Metcalf no 105, (1993, Vol 1, Plate 5 and caption opposite). Type BIa and c form one block of the four main classes which go to make up the core of Series B (Rigold) (=BMC Type 27b). Almost three-quarters of the single finds of these types come from North of the Thames, and Metcalfe thinks there is a strong case for a mint thus, probably Essex or East Anglia, and more likely East Anglia.
