Commentary


Ce genre de monnaie est très difficile à classer précisément. Copiant des monnaies impériales, ces triens sont mal localisés et mal datés ; l’ensemble est très arbitraire, en fonction du style. Globalement attribués au royaume franc de Bourgogne, ces monnaies ont été étudiées par G. Ponton d’Amécourt qui a qualifié ce type “à la boucle perdue”, en référence à la couronne en forme de boucle au droit et celle du revers tenue par la victoire.
This type of coin is very difficult to classify precisely. Copying imperial coins, these triens are poorly located and poorly dated; the whole is very arbitrary, depending on the style. Generally attributed to the Frankish kingdom of Burgundy, these coins were studied by G. Ponton d'Amécourt who called this type “with the lost buckle”, in reference to the crown in the shape of a buckle on the obverse and that on the reverse held by the victory

Historical background


FRANKISH KINGDOM OF BURGUNDY, BURGUNDIANS

(end of sixth century)

According to J. Lafaurie in the catalog of the museum of Lyon, during this still poorly defined period 550/575, very large quantities of triens were struck, the types of which are derived from the coins struck in Italy by the Byzantines in Ravenna, taken from the Ostrogoths in May 540. The strikes are initially quite close to their prototypes: on the right, diademed bust on the right, the diadem closed behind the head by a two-pendant knot, dressed in a chlamys, in a fairly realistic style; on the reverse, Victoire going to the obverse, the bust facing and the head turned towards the left. She holds in her right hand a crown with two pendants, in her left hand a cruciger globe.
