| Obverse description | Diademed and draped bust to right, rendered in a bold, stylised Anglo-Saxon manner derived from late Roman prototypes. The hair is depicted as a series of pronounced pellets or beaded strands radiating above the diadem, conveying a distinctive early medieval aesthetic. Below the bust appears an architectural motif resembling a stepped or cabled structure, possibly a stylised altar or standard, a hallmark feature of the 'Pada' series. The surrounding border is composed of a ring of pellets. A partial retrograde or debased Latin legend runs around the periphery, largely illegible due to the irregular flan. |
