Vandals Pseudo-Imperial coinage circa A.D. 450 9mm 0.7gm OBV: laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right. REV: Palm-tree with dates. BMC Vandals 68-72 This coin is an anonymous nummi which is most likely late Vandalic or contemporary with the reign of Justinian I, so circa A.D. 450. This date is corroborated by hoard evidence. It is probably best classified as pseudo-imperial, as it is not certain if it was officially issued and they usually have no legend or are illegible. |
