[QUOTE="Tejas, post: 7555556, member: 84905"]This solidus was minted in the name of Justinian and may fall into the reign of Athalaric/Amalasuntha, Theodahad or Vitiges. It shows the rapid decline in style during the great Gothic War. The Gothic and Vandalic kings had proven to be better rulers than many of the Roman Emperors ever were, by bringing stability and prosperity to their realms. It was a great shame that Justinian's obsession with reconquering the western parts of the Empire, at the end brought complete destruction and the onset of the Dark Ages.
