Description

Canute (1016-35), Penny, Quatrefoil type (c.1017-1023), Southwark mint, moneyer Brihtmaer, crowned and draped portrait left within quatrefoil, legend commences, +CNVT REX ANGLORVM.

Excellent portrait with clear fields on a problem free flan, legends crisp and concise with the slightest of weak points in places. Bold very fine, much eye appeal with a scarcer moneyer.
