The Morley St. Peter (Norfolk) hoard of 1958 (SCBI 26), contained a large number of coins of Edward the Elder of a distinctive well executed but blundered style. This coin belongs to this analogous group which is thought to have been struck in East Anglia, most probably Norwich or somewhere close by in the East Midlands around the time it was taken back by the English from the Vikings in 917. The mint responsible for this issue can perhaps be best understood as an expediency during the reconquest of this region that operated under quasi-official control. Whilst clearly belonging to this group, the bust is similar to Bust B2, 'Lolling Head' in the report, the dies used here are not found in the hoard.
