Silver penny of Charles II, 'the Bald', Frankish, minted in Melle, Poitou-Charente, France, 840-77. D: 2.1cm, W: 1.71g. Inv. CM 1838,0710.1134. - Sharing his grandfather's name, Charles II 'the Bald' (AD 840-77), king of the western Franks, issued coins with the same monogram of the name KAROLUS, and his early coins are virtually identical with those of Charlemagne. However, some coins, like this example, can be identified as his because they were issued at mints which only became active after Charlemagne's death, such as Melle in Aquitaine.
