Anglo-Saxon pale gold thrymsa Series D Post-Crondall type c655-675 A.D. 'Constantine' 'Oath-taking type' Spink 766 [see D.M. Metcalf Thrymsas and Sceattas in the Ashmolean Museum Oxford Vol. 1 pp47-49 Series VII for a scolarly discussion of this type]. Found South Walsham, Norfolk. The obverse of the present coin exhibits the die crack running from the cross to the thumb top evident with the Coddenham Suffolk finds [see J. C. Sadler Ipswich Numismatic Society Notes Vol XI 1990] and is possibly from the same die (I have sketches only to hand) The Coddenham coins shared the same obverse die and the British Museum specimen is from the same dies as one of these. Another Coddenham find exhibits a reverse as our present coin but hand and cross are replaced by a spiky object. The present reverse is interesting in that it doesn't have the crescent-like 'wings' which attach the 'standard' to the double pelleted inner circles. The cataloguer has a plaster squeeze of another thrymsa of this type in his cabinet which also exhibits this lack of crescents, but both dies seem different to the present. One other difference with the present reverse is that the 'mast-like' upright passes through the double pelleted inner circles. I have not attempted the legend but this seems yet another reading. The open hand is not gripping or holding the cross but is evidently placed flat against it (note the upright thumb) hence the symbolic oath to Christianity from at this time the probably semi pagan Anglo-Saxons. Almost certainly the product of an East Anglian mint. The coin is of great historical interest to early Anglo-Saxon England and is sold with all paperwork relivant to it to date. There are probably less than 15 of this type known and therefore is extremely rare. Weight 1.11g EF

March 23, 2005 02:15 A RARE Anglo-Saxon coin, found by a metal detector enthusiast, has fetched £3,456 (euro 5162,84) at an auction in Ipswich.

The pale gold Thrymsa coin, which dates back to 655AD and is thought to be one of only 15 ever found, was bought at the 47th Lockdales of Ipswich auction held at the Novotel in Greyfriars Road.
