Reverse description The reverse presents a two-line horizontal inscription divided across the field, with three small crosses interspersed between the lines as decorative and devotional devices. A trefoil of pellets is positioned above the uppermost line of text and a matching trefoil of pellets below the lower line, a layout typical of the St. Peter coinage of Viking York. The overall design reflects the hybrid Anglo-Scandinavian monetary tradition of the period.
