The gold coin. It depicts a male figure with an oversized head, with crossed legs and wearing a Roman-style headdress or diadem. Its right arm is down by its side and its left arm is raised up and appears to be holding a cross. Beneath the cross on the right is an interlocking design of three triangles.Adrian Marsden

Intriguing as to whether this depicts religious syncretism or the old pagan symbols being clobbered by the new Christian one. Alternatively, the figure could be taking the crucifix off the top of an altar (or placing it thereupon).
