AD 582–602.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe PAS record describes it as a pendant made from a Gallic Provençal quasi-imperial gold solidus issued in the name of Maurice Tiberius. A ribbed suspension loop was soldered to the edge of the coin, turning the imported gold coin into a wearable Anglo-Saxon object.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe pendant also carries an attached filigree border and a single large gold pellet placed above the emperor’s bust. These details connect the object not only to imperial coinage, but to the Anglo-Saxon practice of adapting prestigious imported gold coins into personal ornaments.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFound in Hoath, Kent, this object is a remarkable survival: foreign gold, imperial imagery, early medieval craftsmanship, and detectorist discovery brought together in one recorded find.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTHE DESIGN\u003cbr\u003e\nThis design uses the “Detectorist’s Find” format — simple, minimal, and field-oriented.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe pendant is presented large and isolated, with bold typography, a barcode-style graphic, the ARTEFACT mark, and the vertical line:\u003cbr\u003e\n“EVERY FIND COUNTS”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe layout treats the object as a direct field discovery rather than a decorative museum exhibit. It is clean, focused, and built around the detectorist’s relationship with the find.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPrinted text on the design:\u003cbr\u003e\n“DETECTORIST’S FIND”\u003cbr\u003e\n“EVERY FIND COUNTS”\u003cbr\u003e\n“GOLD SOLIDUS PENDANT OF MAURICE TIBERIUS”\u003cbr\u003e\n“ANGLO-SAXON ENGLAND, BETWEEN AD 582 AND AD 602”\u003cbr\u003e\n“FOUND IN HOATH, CANTERBURY, KENT, ENGLAND”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nARTEFACT DETAILS\u003cbr\u003e\nArtefact: Gold solidus pendant of Maurice Tiberius\u003cbr\u003e\nObject type: Pendant\u003cbr\u003e\nClass: Coin pendant\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Gold\u003cbr\u003e\nDate: c.
