Struck under Olav Kyrre, whose reign after the catastrophic Norwegian defeat at Stamford Bridge in 1066 marked a deliberate pivot away from Viking-age expansionism toward continental European political norms. Kyrre's coinage reform drew heavily on Anglo-Saxon penny types, a direct consequence of Norway's long monetary entanglement with England — Norwegian mints had been producing Anglo-Saxon-influenced coins since the reign of Olav Haraldsson decades earlier.
Skaare 22 is among the more precisely attributed types from this reign, though die-linking across Kyrre's issues remains an active area of study given the limited number of surviving specimens.
