Sentences with SCEATTA (1)
Professor White, in a paper read to the Ashmolean Society, remarks, that it is of Moeso-Gothic origin, _scatt_ signifying in the Gospels of Uphilas a _pound_, a _penny_, and, indeed, money in general." Ruding observes that, "Whatever might have been the precise value of the _sceatta_, it was undoubtedly the smallest coin known among the Saxons at the latter end of the seventh century, as appears from its forming part of a proverb: Ne sceat ne scilling, _From the least to the greatest_."] Replies.
