| Obverse description | Crude, schematic animal figure — likely a bird or quadruped — occupying the central field of a roughly circular flan, rendered in the rudimentary style characteristic of late Viking-Age Norwegian hammered coinage. The design is enclosed within a beaded or dotted inner circle, with a surrounding legend composed of alternating letters and crosses. The die work is irregular and the strike uneven, consistent with primitive minting techniques of the period. The overall composition reflects the transitional nature of early Norwegian monetary production under royal authority. |
