<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1751172, member: 39&quot;]Around here, Charlemagne introduced the &quot;LSD&quot; system (libra-solidus-denarius) in 790 or so; a setup that the British continued to use until 1971. Before him, Pippin/Pepin issued <a href="http://www.bundesbank.de/Redaktion/EN/Dossier/Bundesbank/collections_coin_banknote_collection_recent_acquisitions.html?notFirst=true&amp;docId=29312" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.bundesbank.de/Redaktion/EN/Dossier/Bundesbank/collections_coin_banknote_collection_recent_acquisitions.html?notFirst=true&amp;docId=29312" rel="nofollow">this coin</a> (scroll down a little) probably from ~750. So it is safe to say that &quot;post-Roman&quot; denarius/pfennig coins have been around for more than 1250 years. Not quite 1500 but not bad either. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
