The lady of Winfarthing was richly adorned with stunning gold jewellery. Alongside the mesmerising gold and garnet pendant, there were several smaller examples, including two pendants refashioned out of coins.

Views the model on Sketchfab:

Coin Pendant 1

Coin Pendant 2

Enjoy!

UPDATE: Helen, Helena and Gus discuss the significance of the coins on Day 2, around 9m13s onwards. The ruler represented is the Frankish king, Sigebert III - see link here: https://youtu.be/EG-j8TJDLwg?t=553

Are these "coin pendants" hollow? The 3D models seem to show a black edge part of the way round, with gold for the rest.

Extremely thin coin layers joined together by the loop?

Anders Wegge Keller

It's an artefact of the modelling. Previously, we'we also seen 3D images of pits, that could be viewed from the outside.

Dominic Lacroix

They both have a similar picture that to my amateur eyes looks like a person holding a very fish/bag. Is there any particular significance to that image? Do we know what it actually represents?

Carrie Hartley

Could the 'upside down' crosses on the obverse, be so designed, that to the wearer, they looked as we would expect?

Hi Ben, models aren't currently available to download at the moment, but we're looking into the possibility of making some available in the future.

I typed about: config because the 3D models never work in my Firefox. But it didn't know that command. So I can still not view these. Funny, after complaining and trying one more time it did work! :D I should complain more often. :D

Since Sigebert died in 656 and coins are worn, is is likely that the Lady died around 686, or is it the fact that the coins are worn just isn''t evidence enough to speculate in any way about the time of her death?

Ben Rush

OK. Please consider it! I think it'd be really fun for those of us with 3D printers to print our own copy of what you all are finding. It would be an opportunity for us to have a physical copy of what you're finding. It'd be a great opportunity to bring a tactile experience to the show.

Marc Filippone

No, they're not hollow. As Anders says, it is an undesirable artifact of the 3D rendering program.

Putting aside the inferences used this far back in time when doing genealogy, King Sigebert III is my 40th great-granduncle. This is crazy to see a connection be discovered in this fashion. Wow! As always, Time Team, you're fantastic. Thank you!
