    Aethelred II Long Cross Penny.

    Aethelred II Long Cross Penny Minted In London By Aethelweard. The legend on the reverse reads "+EDE LPER DMO LVND".

    It dates 997-1003.

    I thought I'd redo the thread with better pictures.

    Beautiful coin. I'm very tempted to add one of two hammered coins to my collection. Your thread certainly adds to my temptation.;)

    It took me ages to learn how to identify the bloody things though...
