On the obverse the bottom of this is crescent shaped and possibly slightly lifted from the surface suggesting that this tear resulted from the testing - pecking - of the coin to check its quality. Such pecking is typically related to a Viking bullion economy and would sugg…

Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Published
Silver denier of Charles the Bald, Carolingian King of the West Franks (840-77). There are coins of similar design issued by Charlemagne, but the style is quite different. Coins of Charles the Bald have often been found in the area of the Danelaw, where they evidently circulated in fairly large numbers in the late 9th and early 10th century, but a find from the Isle of Wight is unusual.
