Skip to product information
A genuine Anglo-Saxon silver penny of Ethelred II, discovered by a metal detectorist on the Isle of Wight, England, and recorded by the UK Portable Antiquities Scheme.
This ARTEFACT design turns a real late Anglo-Saxon coin into a bold museum-meets-streetwear piece for people who value the story more than the trophy.
THE STORY BEHIND THE FIND
This coin dates to c. AD 1003–1009, in the reign of Ethelred II. The PAS record identifies it as a silver penny of the Helmet type (North 775), struck in London by the moneyer Eadwig.
The obverse carries the bust of Ethelred II in armour and radiate helmet, while the reverse shows a long cross voided with crescents, squares, and trefoils in the angles. In this Neon series design, the featured image is based on the reverse side of the coin, giving the long-cross composition full visual impact.
THE DESIGN
Built in the ARTEFACT Neon series format, the print combines a large central artefact image, a vivid neon atmosphere, bold period lettering, field-tag styling, and UK PAS registration marks.
Printed text on the design:
“ANGLO-SAXON ENGLAND”
“LOST IN ANCIENT BRITAIN / FOUND BY TODAY’S DETECTORISTS”
“FIELD TAG: FIND ID 760592”
“REGISTERED WITH THE UK PAS”
