Object type: COIN HOARD
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Secondary Phase silver sceatta of Bird on cross type (N126).
All three coins come from the Primary Series of the English silver pennies, dating from c. AD 680-710. One of the coins is of Series A, the other two of Series BI. These two series are of the same date, and are routinely found in association, so to find three coins of the same date in such a small area strongly suggests that they were deposited together, and should be considered as a single group for Treasure purposes.
