File:Saxon Coin of Beormiric (reverse).jpg

English: The reverse of the bottom of the two Saxon coins from the figures decorating the margins of Moll's map of Surrey, sold separately and as Map 11 in his Set of Fifty New and Correct Maps of England and Wales... The coin is a penny of Beorhtric of Wessex. As is normal for Moll's presentation of coins in the series, both coins have somewhat mangled inscriptions.

The image is copied from figure 3 of Tabula II Nummi Saxonici on Page 139 of Obadiah Walker's "Notes on the Saxon Coins" appended to the English translation of William Camden's Britannica, where its note states "3. The third Beormerick (by Speed called Brithric, for of that other name we find no mention in histories) was King of the West Saxons, and succeeded Coenuulf. In the third year of his reign was the first appearance of the pirates upon these coasts. Pirates, I call them, because they were not owned by any sovereign prince till long after: but were a confluence of all sorts of thieves, who by spoil and robbery, arrived to much wealth, and the confidence to erect a kind of community or republic at a strong town, now called Wollin in Pomerania; whence they went out to rob, and laid up their prey there. Brihtrick banished Ecgberht, fearing both the goodness of his title, and his great abilities; yet dying childless, he left the kingdom to him, an. 800. He was poisoned by his wife, the wicked Eadburga, by chance tasting of a cup she had prepared for one of his favorites. Upon his death, she fled, with all her treasures, into France; when coming to Charles the Great, he asked her whom she desired to marry, himself or his son, there present? She foolishly answered, that if it were in her choice, she would marry his son, because he was the younger. Whereupon Emperor told her, that if she had chosen himself, she should have married his son; but now, that she should retire to such a monastery. Whence also for her incontinency, she was shortly turned out, and died begging."
