Beschrijving voorzijde Crude, stylized bust facing right with a distinctive pyramidal or triangular neck treatment, rendered in a debased Anglo-Frisian style. A chevron device appears behind the portrait in the field. A partially legible or blundered Runic inscription runs before the bust, characteristic of the degenerate lettering common to Frisian sceat production of this period.

Aanvullende informatie

Series D sceats are among the most confidently attributed Frisian issues, almost certainly struck in or near Dorestad, the Rhine-delta emporium that dominated North Sea trade during this period. Dorestad's position as a transit point between Frankish silver supplies and Anglo-Saxon markets explains both the wide distribution of these coins in the archaeological record and the remarkable consistency of their die-cutting compared to other sceat series.

Metcalf's die-linkage studies across types 158–180 revealed production in discrete, relatively short bursts rather than continuous output — suggesting mint activity tied to commercial seasons or periodic Carolingian administrative pressure on the region.
