Edelred coin? Need help in identity

[deemas 10]

Can't find the similar. Need your help to identify.

Thank you in advance.

It isn't English or Hiberno-Norse. Try somewhere in Scandinavia as I think it is an imitation that is a cross between an Ethelred Last Small Cross obverse and a Cnut Quatrefoil(?) reverse. I don't have any books on these.

Was going to say the same. It's probably a viking imitation.

I've thought the same. Seems the silver is more springy as used on most Germans coins. The British coins are made from much softer silver. May be a way of remelting the Kufic coins?

It could be slightly debased (lower grade silver ) perhaps.

German coins is not a low quality silver but they are always springy
