Those Visigoth Tremissis are beautiful. I looked at a couple at Glenn Schinke's
table a few years ago. Lite as a feather they are. And VERY pricee. I'll be able
to help a bit when we get to the 1200's and really help with the 1300's and
1400's.

 

The Spanish Visigoth coinage are stunning, I agree. There is quite a selection in a nearby museum along with Carthaginian, Roman and Islamic coins all found near here.

Right now. Sorry, celebrating selling one of our properties we inherited.
Post your 700CE-800CE examples.

 

Abbasid Caliphate/ First period (Tibor will like this early dated coin)
Caliph al-Mahdi 775-785AD
AV Dinar AH 162 = 780AD

 

@panzerman You are correct, That is a beauty!! Shame I can't read the
date. Another 500 years and I'll be able to join in.
Keep 'em coming!!

 

I can't either!
I have a friend in our coin club/ he has no problem deciphering dates/ legends/ mints. That is a great help when I make my data labels!

 

I have pretty slim pickings from this century. Here's another Tang Dynasty cash coin which may well have been from 700-800AD. I like the green shades of old copper.

 

Umayyad / Caliphate
AV Dinar AH 77 (696/7AD)
Caliph 'Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan 685-705AD
Dimashq Mint

 

@expat, a very nice thread - it is a pleasure to see all these coins - read about the thread in the ancient forum.

On one of @panzerman's solidus it seems that Emperor Maurice Tiberius is smiling. A lovely coin.

Unfortunately I have no coins to share for this period nor for a few to come, have to wait for several hundreds of years to join

 

It will be a pleasure to see your coins when you can. I started this thread knowing I could not take part at all, my collecting stops with late Roman and doesn't start again till 1700's. After seeing these lovely examples it is an area I need to consider.
