Beschrijving voorzijde Facing bust of King Cnut rendered in a stylized Anglo-Saxon manner, wearing a pointed helmet with cheek guards and draped in regal attire. The king's features are depicted with bold, linear engraving characteristic of late Anglo-Saxon die-cutting. A circumscribed Latin legend surrounds the effigy in the field. The portrait conveys regal authority within the compact flan typical of hammered silver pennies of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde A prominent voided cross with jewelled arms extending to the inner circle, with a pellet or annulet at the centre and ornamental elements between the arms, giving the type its distinctive 'Jewel Cross' designation. The cruciform design is executed with bold die-work, with the decorative motifs filling each angle of the cross. A circumscribed Latin legend identifying the moneyer and mint surrounds the design. The overall composition is typical of the prolific Jewel Cross coinage issued during the final years of Cnut's reign.
