An Early-Medieval gold plated Visigothic tremissis, a contemporary imitation. This coin copies the tremisses of the 6th-century Byzantine emperor Justin I (or possibly Justinian I) and looks like one of the anonymous issues of the Spanish Visigoths as opposed to when they were based in Southern France. However, the left-facing Victory is a rarity, although not completely unknown and the bust is larger and of better workmanship than many of them which probably indicates that it is probably an early variety. Obv. DN II[ ]; Laureate bust right, cross on breast. Rev. [ ]IC[ ]; Victory a…
