<p>[QUOTE=&quot;+VGO.DVCKS, post: 4928394, member: 110504&quot;]These are a couple of deniers of Le Mans /Maine, both of which I bought mostly in the hope that they were 10th-c. immobilizations, perhaps as late as the earliest counts of record in the neighborhood.&nbsp; To spare you (plural ...yours truly included) the documentation, there are minor legend variants, especially from Depeyrot (3rd ed, 2008 --couldn&#039;t stop myself in time), that mmmMight date them as late as that.&nbsp; ...Except, the variants, such as they are, could no less plausibly put both of them all the way back to Charles II (&#039;le chauve /the bald&#039;); for this issue, c. 865-877.</p><p>...Especially in the absence of citations, this already went on too long.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1185909[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1185910[/ATTACH]</p><p>They&#039;re both easy variations of the commonest Carolingian issue, the &#039;GDR&#039; deniers, from the later phases of Charles II&#039;s reign.&nbsp; The pics begin from opposite sides, but you get the drill: (Carolingian monogram: ) &#039;GRATIA DE_I REX,&#039; followed by (cross), &#039;CINOMANNIS CIVITAS.&#039;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
