Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse is divided into two lines of lettering naming the moneyer, separated by three small crosses pattée arranged horizontally across the centre of the field. Rosettes appear above and below the central cross arrangement, lending the type its distinctive name. The legend is struck in bold, angular letterforms within a beaded border, consistent with the hand-struck coinage of the period. The composition reflects the standard Anglo-Saxon two-line reverse format employed during the reign of Eadgar, with the moneyer's name prominently displayed as a mark of accountability.

Aanvullende informatie

Eadgar's reign is the fixed point against which all late Anglo-Saxon monetary reform is measured. His 973 recoinage — likely tied directly to his formal coronation at Bath that year — imposed a unified national penny standard and established the periodic renewal system that would define English minting for the next century. The Rosette type predates that reform, placing this piece in the earlier, less regulated phase of his rule, when regional mint practices still varied considerably.
