| Obverse description | Crude bust of the king facing left, rendered in the Anglo-Saxon hammered style typical of early medieval Scandinavian coinage. The effigy is surrounded by a legend, with a beaded border encircling the entire design along the rim. The portrait is schematic and linear, reflecting the die-cutting conventions of the period. |
