An early-medieval gold Merovingian tremissis, 'mint-and-moneyer' or 'National' series dating to c.AD580-660/70, mint: possibly Allassac [ATACIACO; cf. Belfort 1892 nos 422-3] (Correze, Fr), moneyer: 'Frateciselo' [FRATECLISELO]. Ref: de Belfort 1892: p.123.
The coin has a silvery appearance suggesting it belongs later in the series when gold content was declining, the metal often termed 'pale gold' with inceasing silver content. It may date more closely to c.AD640-60.
The named moneyer FRATECLISELO is not listed in de Belfort's 1982-5 catalogue.
