| Additional information |
Liutprand ruled the Lombard Kingdom longer than any other Lombard king — nearly three decades — and spent much of that reign in direct conflict with the papacy and the Byzantine Exarchate of Ravenna, which he seized in 751. The tremissis issued under his authority reflects a monetary system still deeply indebted to late Roman and Byzantine gold standards, with Lombard mints producing fractional gold long after Frankish territories had begun shifting toward silver.
The attribution to the moneyer Audoim places this among a small, identifiable group within Liutprand's extensive coinage.
