| Reverse description | The reverse displays the moneyer's name arranged in two horizontal lines across the open field, a defining characteristic of the Two-line type series. The legend reads VVAR / MER / MO, distributing the moneyer's name 'Warmer' and the abbreviation for monetarius (moneyer) across the field. Small crosses are placed between the lines as dividers, while a trefoil ornament appears both above and below the lettering, adding decorative symmetry typical of Anglo-Saxon penny design. The overall layout is bold and well-centred, with the hammered flan showing characteristic irregular edges consistent with hand-struck coinage of the period. |
