Cnut (1016-1035), Penny, Quatrefoil type, Hertford, Lifinc, lylin mon retf, Late London A dies, pellets in reverse spandrels, 0.89g/3h (BEH –; N 781; S 1157). Small edge perforation, about very fine; the mint scarce for this type, particularly so with this reverse variety £150-£200
found in North Norfolk
Lifinc renders the mint name in numerous ways including: Heor, Heort, Heret, Hreter, Retef, Reth and Retn. For a similar coin employing a slightly different bust style see FEJ 359. Not surprisingly, Hildebrand attributed some of these readings to a supposed mint at Retford.
