Description: | Eight silver sceattas, addenda to a dispersed hoard of twelve found in 2011 and 2012 (NMS-0A0E22, Treasure case 2012 T401) and published in Norfolk Archaeology XLVI (2013), pp.492-502. That group, consisting entirely of so-called Porcupine types, suggested that the Runic Aethiliraed type was Continental, a supposition strengthened by the evidence from these additional coins. Six are late Series E types, another is a VERNVS derivative of uncertain attribution, whilst the final coin is another Runic Aethiliraed type. As with the earlier group, there is a lack of anything demonstrably English and the makeup of this group (together with the first) may suggest that the VERNVS coin is also Continental in origin.1.
