Senoren

This is a little bigger in 600 x 800 (10 cm Senoren) so that we see the pattern and that the text is not intelligible HAVHETOH and HENXV++N. The frill is stylised and the diadem have been redesigned.

Maybe that was a medallion for the leader showing him to be the provider of all good things …our leaders of today try to give the same impression. Normal golden bract are not bigger than the samples at right

Geltorf, Flensburg. Upper sample

The text consists of non-intelligible symbols. There is a swastika in the text and that use could be compared with the bracts from Nebenstedt, Darum and Odense. Even on some Roman coins there are non-intelligible symbols or we do not know the full meaning. Maybe they marked minting place

The head ribbon is just marked and on the dress there are two circles with a dot. Maybe they mark the buckles. There is a swastika near his mouth and golden pearl at the ear.

Hov, Tröndelag Lower sample

The text reads DNCONSNS and DN CONSNOI and both should be "Our Lord Constans. Simplified head ribbon ending in pearls and pearls on the ribbon. Much simplified frill and gold pearl at the ear
