A small, possibly incomplete copper alloy imitation of a sceatta, probably a Series K or Series Q (c. AD 710-760). The coin is small and worn and the reverse is crudely executed making identification difficult. This contemporary copy was probably silvered although no trace of this now survives.

A Secondary phase Middle Saxon silver-plated copper alloy cut sceat of Series J (type 37) of c.710-725. The obverse shows two facing busts; the reverse a whorl of birds. The bust style is considered by Metcalf to be imitative in that the he sees the official issues as having a mouth formed of two pellets sloping towards the left, whereas these slope in the other direction. The coin was probably minted somewhere in the immediate Humber region.

A probable contemporary imitation of an early medieval sceat (c.675-750).

The obverse appears illegible, but the reverse shows a devolved standard probably related to the Secondary phase of Series E (c.700-60).
