| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a small cross pattée within a raised inner circle, dividing the field. Surrounding the inner circle, the royal legend is arranged in two concentric registers separated by a beaded border. The inscription reads the king's name and title in debased Latin letterforms, including retrograde and variant Anglo-Saxon characters. The coin is struck on an irregularly shaped flan typical of Anglo-Saxon hammered coinage of the early tenth century. The overall design is austere, with no royal effigy, reflecting the Small Cross type's emphasis on epigraphic rather than portrait design. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays a small cross pattée within a raised inner circle, consistent with the Small Cross type reverse standard. The moneyer's name and mint signature are rendered in Anglo-Saxon letterforms arranged around the inner circle within a beaded outer border. Several letters appear inverted or in ornamental form, characteristic of Anglo-Saxon hammered penny production under Æthelstan. The flan is irregular in outline, with the legend partially weak at the edges due to the hand-striking technique. The reverse design follows the standard two-line or circular moneyer formula established across Æthelstan's extensive coinage. |
