Gold tremissis (shilling) of Eadbald of Kent, Anglo-Saxon, London, 616-40. D: 1.2cm, W: 1.28g. Inv. CM 1999,0105.1. - A handful of coins are known in the name of Eadbald of Kent (reigned AD 616-40). Eadbald was converted to Christianity in the middle of his reign, and the Christian symbol of the cross and globe on both sides of the coins probably indicates that they date from the latter part of the reign. The legend on the front reads AVDVARLD [or AVDVABLD] REGES ('Of King Eadbald'), while the back appears to have a blundered version of a moneyer's name and the name of the mint of London.
