Commentary


Bien que plusieurs deniers de ce type soient recensés, aucun n’est repris dans le Belfort qui recense pourtant quelques monnaies avec ce genre de revers (cf. B. 5726-5730). Cette série, probablement originaire de Seine-Maritime semble encore devoir être étudiée. Ce type de portrait semble aussi très proche de ceux des deniers au nom d’APALSAR (B. 5753).

Historical background


ROUEN - UNSPECIFIED MINT OF THE CIVITAS ROTOMAGENSIUM

(early 8th century)

Rouen struck several types of deniers with a rose on the reverse and presenting a head of profile on the reverse or an A topped with a cross. The specimens with a rose and the face head seem to have been struck in the Rouen region. These three types are found in the treasure of Plassac (Gironde) hidden around 710-730.
