Byzantine copper alloy coin: possibly a tetarteron which were small, thick copper coins of this period. It is likely to date from the 11-13th century.

A gold solidus of Arichis II, dux of Benevento (Italy), probably Class I coinage of 758-765. See Grierson and Blackburn 1986 (Medieval European Coinage 1: The Early Middle Ages), 575, plate 50 (no 1096). The coin bears two cut marks at 1 and 5 o'clock respectively, both of which cut through the coin in a straight line, angled toward a point just right of centre. The cuts do not meet, however, so that the coin remained intact. These cut marks may represent an aborted attempt of 'hacking' the coin for gold - a practice common in the Early Medieval period.
