GREAT BRITAIN. Penny, ND (1036-38). Hastings Mint. Harold I 'Harefoot'. NGC Unc Details--Peck Marked. Jewel Cross (BMC i) type; S-1163; North-802; Hild-269; SCBI Cop-150 (plate coin); Bruun-1099. Weight: 1.22 gms. Moneyer: Ælfweard. Very rare; all recorded Jewel Cross pennies of Harold from Hastings on EMC are from Copenhagen and Stockholm museums only, and no sales are listed on Coin Archives. This little jewel (!) has but a single peck on the reverse, and a weakness due to the thinness of the planchet at the rim; otherwise, it appears uncirculated with dark, golden toning and much eye-appeal. The L. E. Bruun coins were under the care of the Danish National Museum and the Frederiksborg Museum. Professor Georg Galster included them in the Copenhagen SCBI, so collectors now have a rare opportunity to own an SCBI-recorded coin. Estimate: €1,000 - €1,500. Provenance: From the L.E. Bruun Collection. To view supplemental information and all items from the L.E. Bruun Collection, click here. Please note: Bid amounts do not include VAT.
