正面描述 The obverse presents an epigraphic design in lieu of a royal portrait, with the king's name and title arranged across three horizontal lines in the field, each line separated by a row of pellets. The inscription reads in angular Latin lettering characteristic of late 8th-century East Anglian hammered coinage. The entire legend is enclosed within a beaded border, lending the design a formal, structured appearance consistent with the broader tradition of aniconic Anglo-Saxon pennies. The three-line layout, sometimes described as a 'three-line type,' reflects a deliberate typological choice distinguishing this issue within the East Anglian series. The angular execution of the letterforms underscores the skilled craftsmanship of the royal mint under Eadwald's brief reign.

附加信息

Eadwald's reign is among the most obscure in Anglo-Saxon numismatic history — he appears in no chronicle, no charter, no hagiography. The coins are essentially the only proof he existed. This three-line type, along with a small handful of related pennies, constitutes the entire surviving documentary record of his kingship over East Anglia, a reign that likely lasted no more than a few years before Mercia reasserted its dominance over the region following Offa's death in 796.
