Description

Canute (1016-35), Penny, Short cross type (c.1029-35/36), London Mint, moneyer Eadred, diademed bust left with lis tipped sceptre, legend surrounding, CNVT REC:X. Rev, voided short cross, within linear circle and legend surrounding, reads +EDRED ON LVND:, 1.12g (S.1159; N.790; BMC XVI; SCBI 14 [Copenhagen, Part IIIb], 2410 same dies).

A fully centred strike displaying much of the outer beaded borders. Brightly toned with a mint underlying golden brilliance. Fields free from peckmarks, legends legible both sides with a crisp portrait. Obverse die marginally rusty presenting in parts of legend and eastern segments of drapery. About extremely fine, much eye appeal.
