Nice! Been detecting in Herefordshire for twenty years and never found a Saxon coin so it's good to see they're out there.

Very nice. A  Saxon primary sceatta as has been already stated. Type B1a appears to be the closest (the exact equivalent is not in Spink, the nearest being Spink 777).

Does that make it a rare coin Peter or just no illustration in spinks ?
