Commentary
Ce denier correspond au B. 3604 conservé alors au musée de Poitiers. Les monnaies de GODOLAICVS sont bien représentés, avec des types de revers variés. Certains avec le monogramme A associé à une crosse sont attribués à l’évêque Ansoaldus. Des deniers de Poitiers au nom de ce monétaire étaient présent dans le dépôt monétaire de Plassac.

Historical background
POITIERS - PECTAVIS - CIVITAS PECTAVORUM
(late 7th - early 8th century)
Many denarii from Poitiers have a radiated head, as in Orleans. These denarii were struck at the end of the 7th and the beginning of the 8th century, since they are found in the treasury of Plassac (Gironde) hidden around 710-730. The Merovingian coinage of the Poitevine region is quite diversified, with triens and a wide variety of denarii. The proximity of the silver mines of Melle is certainly no coincidence.
