| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by a large interlaced serpentine or zoomorphic device formed by two sinuous, crossing bands terminating in a spiral volute to the right and a curled tail to the lower left, with a fan-shaped or plumed element rising from the junction at the top. The design is executed in bold relief in the characteristically abstract Anglo-Saxon die-cutting style. The entire motif is contained within a beaded border of pellets encircling the flan. The field is uninscribed. The flan is irregular in outline, as typical of hammered early medieval silver coinage. |

Series Q sceattas remain among the most geographically ambiguous of the secondary series, with no firm mint attribution despite decades of find-spot analysis. Metcalf's work placed them broadly in a Mercian or Middle Anglian orbit, though the argument rests largely on metal composition and distribution patterns rather than any documentary evidence. The variety IA-D classification tracks die-link groupings within the series — a reminder that what looks like a single type is actually a cluster of related but distinct production episodes, probably spanning multiple workshops.
