On the reverse, however, the Runic inscription PADA has been replaced with a cross-on-steps, a common Byzantine motif first encountered in the Anglo-Saxon series on the fine gold Benitugo type Thrymsa.

Ex Archbishop Sharp (Morton & Eden 91, 7 December 2017), lot 22.Earlier scholarship assigned this coinage to the 822/3-4 period, based on stylistic comparison with the royal coinage of King Coelwulf I of Mercia. However, Bradley Hopper recently challenged this chronology, questioning why there would be a break down in royal authority, as indicated by the removal of the royal name from the coinage. He suggests the answer lies in the contentious relationship between Archbishop Wulfred and King Coenwulf of Mercia, who had Wulfred suspended from 817-821, providing an alternate chronology for these anonymous issues. (Hopper, B. "The dating of Canterbury's anonymous Archiepiscopal coinage," in BNJ 92 [2022], p. 39-48) Naismith notes that this particular coin is a mule of the anonymous type with a reverse normally used under Baldred. The die rusts suggests that Swefheard pressed an outdated obverse into service when his Baldred obverse die broke.
