| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a large barred letter A enclosed within a beaded inner circle, rendered in bold angular relief characteristic of early Anglo-Saxon die-cutting. The A motif is flanked by subsidiary letters forming part of the ruler's name. A Latin legend reading the king's name encircles the inner circle, running clockwise around the outer field. The design reflects the monogram penny tradition prevalent in East Anglian coinage of the early ninth century. The coin's flan is irregular and slightly uneven, consistent with hand-hammered production. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays an omega-cross motif — an omega symbol surmounted by a cross — set within a beaded inner circle, a device characteristic of East Anglian royal coinage of this period. The bold, angular letterforms of the surrounding legend are arranged clockwise in the outer field, incorporating Greek letterforms for certain characters. The overall composition is tightly arranged within the coin's irregular flan, with the central device serving as the principal decorative and symbolic element. The hammered relief is strong and well-defined on this example. |
