| Obverse description | Helmeted royal effigy facing left, depicted in profile holding a sceptre grasped with both hands. The bust is rendered in the Anglo-Saxon influenced uncial style typical of late 11th-century Norwegian coinage. A legend in Latin uncial characters surrounds the central device, enclosed within a beaded inner ring along the rim. |

| Reverse description | A voided double-lined cross occupies the central field, set within a solid inner ring; one quarter of the cross contains a pellet in the field. The design is framed by a legend in Latin uncial characters, with a beaded ring encircling the rim. The overall arrangement is characteristic of Anglo-Scandinavian penny types of the late 11th century. |
