Gold solidus of Theodebert I, minted in the kingdom of Metz, eastern France. Frankish, 534- 548 CE. After the fall of Rome, a number of "barbarian" kingdoms emerged in the West. Their coinage consisted of large gold coins called "solidi" and smaller gold coins called "tremisses", and normally carried the name of the reigning emperor in Constantinople. The first exception to this is the gold coinage of the Frankish king Theodebert I. CM 68-12-1-10 (B 103)
