Reverse description A stylized stag advancing to the right, rendered in the abstract, linear style characteristic of Northumbrian sceattas of the mid-eighth century. A cross is depicted on the stag's back beneath a curved tail, serving as a Christian symbol integrated into the zoomorphic design. Beneath the stag, a triquetra — a three-lobed interlace motif of Celtic-Insular artistic tradition — occupies the lower field. The overall composition reflects the fusion of Christian iconography and native decorative art typical of the Eadberht coinage.
