| Aversbeschreibung | Central pellet-in-annulet motif occupying the lower left field, surrounded by a boldly rendered radiate or porcupine-style design composed of curved lines of pellets and raised ridges emanating outward in a fan or comb arrangement. The design fills the flan almost entirely, with no legend present. The style is characteristic of the so-called 'porcupine' sceat series, produced in Frisian workshops during the early eighth century. The surface exhibits the irregular flan and hand-struck quality typical of hammered Anglo-Frisian coinage of this period. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Frisian sceats circulated across the North Sea trading network at a time when Dorestad — the emporium on the Rhine — was arguably the busiest commercial hub in northern Europe. These coins moved through the hands of merchants dealing in Rhenish wine, Frankish glass, and English wool long before any formal monetary authority had reason to care about standardization. The type referenced by Gannon 38 belongs to the so-called "porcupine" series, whose production was decentralized enough that no single mint can be assigned with confidence.
Flan quality is notoriously inconsistent across the series — a direct consequence of the ad hoc production methods used at trading settlements rather than royal mints.
