| Reverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, the Karolus monogram — a cruciform interlaced design derived from Carolingian prototype coinage — occupies the central field. The monogram is rendered in the angular, simplified style characteristic of Viking Age imitative issues. A legend in Latin characters surrounds the inner circle in the outer field, denoting the mint city of York. The overall design reflects the deliberate adoption of Carolingian iconographic conventions by the Viking rulers of Northumbria. |
