Early Medieval sceatta Series D, type 2c continental runic sceat (Abramson, T. 2006, p.97-98). 'heavy type' c. 700-715, probably minted near the Rhine mouth. Metcalf distinguished between 'heavy' (1.1-1.3grams) and 'light' (<1grams) ones of this type. The light ones tend to be a bit more random and are possibly contempory copies (forgeries). A parralel for this one can be seen in Metcalf: Plate 9 example 173. Thanks are extended to Laura Burnett and Frank Basford for help identifying this coin
