Beschrijving keerzijde A two-line cross with three pellets in the upper-left quarter and three pellets in the lower-right quarter, set within a circular inner ring. Surrounding the cross, a runic inscription in the legend names the mint master responsible for production at Hamar, reading OLAFR (A) HAMR, translating as 'Olav of Hamar.' The execution is consistent with mid-eleventh-century Norwegian hammered silver pennings, with the runic lettering arranged continuously around the cross motif.

Aanvullende informatie

Harald Sigurdsson — Harald Hardråde — seized the Norwegian throne in 1047 after two decades of service as a mercenary commander in Kievan Rus and the Byzantine Varangian Guard, where he accumulated enough wealth and military reputation to challenge Magnus the Good directly. His coinage was modeled closely on contemporary Anglo-Saxon penny types, reflecting both the Norman cross-Channel monetary influence and Harald's own obsessive ambition toward the English crown — an ambition that ended at Stamford Bridge in September 1066, three weeks before Hastings.

Skaare 7 is among the rarer die groupings of his reign, with surviving examples predominantly recovered from Norwegian hoards rather than circulation finds.
