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.

Workflow stage: Published
An Early-Medieval Visigothic 'pseudo-imperial' gold tremissis, dating to the 6th century (pre-580). The type was probably of a type introduced by Theodoric I in 509, based on contemporary Byzantine issues.
The coin is closely paralleled by examples illustrated in Grierson and Blackburn (1986, plates 10-11, especially no. 202). Grieson and Blackburn (1986, 48) state:
'[The] profile bust of the obverse has a highly devolved cross on the chest, this being one of the most distinctive features separating Visigothic pseudo-tremisses from those of the Burgundians and the Franks.
