A few light scratches on reverse, otherwise good very fine, pretty old cabinet tone £500-£600 --- The mint-signature seen on this present specimen was rarely employed under Ælfweard during the Facing Bust issue. No example is found within the British Museum Collection (as published by Greuber and Keary), nor within any of the SCBI volumes. Instead, the readings lvnd and lvnde appear far more common. A specimen reading lvn was included within the Montagu collection (part 1, 18 November 1895, lot 824e) but was unfortunately not illustrated in the catalogue. Another specimen (unillustrated but with a weight of 0.93g) was offered in the Spink Numismatic Circular, September 1990, no. 5184.

A coin struck by the moneyer Cinstan in the British Museum (BMC 10) utilises a obverse die of similar style.
![Henry II (1154-1189), Cross-and-Crosslets (Tealby) coinage, Penny, class A, London, Geffrei, [-]effrei : [––]vnd, 1.43g/1h (B](https://cdn.globalauctionplatform.com/e11698fe-4e36-40ac-8de8-b06700d9e215/0adbfeee-9999-4ca6-8408-b0a100fcccc5/468x382.jpg)

Struck from worn dies on a square flan, about very fine and dark toned £90-£120 --- Due to the worn state of the obverse die used to strike this coin, it is difficult to determine the presence of a trefoil across the kings’s tunic (the primary distinguishing characteristic between classes A1 and A2). The die duplicate in the BMC was described by D. Allen as ‘Bust A’ only.
