| Reverse description | Central device consists of a bold double-lined cross pattee dividing the field into four quadrants, a design type closely derived from contemporary Anglo-Saxon penny coinage. The cross extends nearly to the border, with each quadrant displaying a recessed, flat field. Surrounding the cross is a circular Latin legend reading '+DOC+DOC+DOC+DOC', a repetitive inscription characteristic of late Viking-Age Norwegian pennies struck at Nidaros. Annulets punctuate the legend at the cardinal points, and the flan is irregular, as is typical of hammered silver coinage of this period. |
