| Obverse description | Stylized bust facing right in the Roman imperial tradition, rendered in a distinctly Anglo-Saxon manner with bold, somewhat abstract linear engraving. The figure displays a radiate or crested helmet with pronounced ridged lines emanating from the crown, and a draped shoulder visible below. A small cross appears before the face in the field to the right of the bust. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border, characteristic of early Anglo-Saxon gold coinage of the primary phase. |
