British and World Coins

Eadgar (959-975), Penny, Reform type, York, Cnealan, cnealan m–o efer·, 1.58g/3h (N 752; S 1141). A little crimped, otherwise good fine or better, the legends fully legible and the moneyer apparently unrecorded £1,200-1,500

The extensive list of moneyers given by Jonsson and van der Meer (Studies in late Anglo-Saxon Coinage, pp.123-36) includes nothing even resembling the name Cnealan. Other names ending in -an (Beolan, Crucan, Trotan) are of Old Irish origin.
