A modern copy of an Early Medieval silver halfpenny of Edward the Elder (899-924), based upon Norrth 660 (floral penny) albeit seemingly intended to be a halfpenny version, of which no real examples are known.

The reverse of this coin is mostly smooth although within the loop of the 'g' in Scarborough …
