Commentary
Cette obole n’a pas pu être attribuée à un atelier précis faute de présenter une légende complètement lisible. Il faut probablement y voir le fruit d’un atelier du Poitou ou de Touraine. Des oboles unifaces avec une croix cantonnée de quatre globules portant la légende MEAL TEODERICO. On connaît aussi des deniers attribués à Melle ou à Poitiers avec une croix cantonnée de quatre globules.
This obol could not be attributed to a specific workshop due to the lack of a completely legible legend. It is probably the work of a workshop in Poitou or Touraine. Single-sided obols with a cross surrounded by four globules bearing the legend MEAL TEODERICO. We also know of deniers attributed to Melle or Poitiers with a cross surrounded by four globules

Historical background

The attributions being based on often old works, a coin unknown at the time will often have difficulty in being attributed, unless it is possible to read the mint or find the name of the mint and compare with its production in the workshops where he minted coins....
