| Reverse description | A stylized dove in flight, representing the Holy Spirit, is depicted facing left with wings spread and a prominent tail rendered in a fan-like arrangement of incuse lines, consistent with the Agnus Dei / Pacx type coinage associated with Harthacnut's English mint dies. A long vertical stroke bisects the field, flanked by symmetrical drapery-like linear motifs. The field is surrounded by a beaded border containing the moneyer and mint legend in Latin characters typical of Anglo-Danish penny production. |
