Merovingians. Uncertain. Gold Tremissis (0.72 g), ca. 575-650. SEGAVI+ (?), diademed and draped bust right. Reverse: CEOVVEVVO, cross. Prou -; MEC 1, -. Rare. Extremely Fine. Estimated Value $2,000
This tremissis presents the classic Merovingian gold types of a bust on the obverse and cross on the reverse, but the legends do not indicate any particular mint. Thus, it remains attributable to any particular workshop or region unless in can be die-matched to a coin whose identification is certain.
