Commentary


Cet exemplaire est exactement du même type que les B350 et J110 publiés par T. Abramson, ou encore que le n° 695 de Cambridge.
Bien que sur un flan large, ce type est anépigraphe, avec un grènetis des deux côtés, mais aucune légende autour. Associée au style, cette caractéristique permet de distinguer les deux groupes de monnaies, pourtant aux mêmes types de droit et de revers !.

Historical background


ENGLAND - ANGLO-SAXONS

(7th - 8th centuries)

If the minting of these coins is to be located at the beginning of the 8th century, in Great Britain, it is not exceptional to find them in Gaul. They are often confused with Merovingian silver coins (cf. MONNAIES XIX, n° 503, sceattas c. 680-710, classified in Merovingian denier of Laon). During the 8th century, the style of these pieces is more and more degenerated, they are often in ridge or filled. These coins disappeared from circulation in the second half of the 8th century.
