Description: | A copper alloy coin of uncertain date and type. The coin looks like a sceat which has been struck off centre, but the designs are very worn, and what is visible does not appear to match known sceatta types.One face has a beaded outer border, then a wire border and the design is indistinct. It is formed of curved and straight lines including some ovoids. They could perhaps represent a fantastic beast.The other face has a curved line border with a possible very worn legend outside it. Inside, the most obvious feature is a cross of double lines. In the angles are curved lines and shapes.
