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 style and flan of the coin are not consistent with an early-medieval piece- the flan is too smooth and the design/inscription too well defined and crisp. It may be an 'Ashmore copy' who produced a very similar fake penny of this type (T. Abramson 'Anglo-Saxon counterfeits', p.152). Obverse: Small cross pattee within a plain inner circle; inscription: EADVVEARD REX Rev…

Three silver pennies of Edward the Elder, all East Anglian Portrait types with blundered reverse legends, North 651, AD899-924. Two of the coins were found very close together, the third a little way away. There is no doubt that the three coins represent part of a hoard concealed c.925. This is strikingly close in date to the large hoard of Morley St Peter now in the Castle Museum, Norwich and it must surely be the case that the two hoards are connected. Quite probably the same event, most likely a Viking rebellion in the newly reconquered Danelaw after Edward's death, was responsi…
