| Additional information |
Gelimer was the last Vandal king, deposed by Belisarius in 534 following the Byzantine reconquest of North Africa — a campaign so swift it effectively ended a kingdom that had held Carthage for a century. This tiny bronze fraction was struck during his reign of roughly four years, the final coinage of an independent Vandal state. The Carthage mint ceased Vandal production entirely upon Byzantine occupation, making issues attributable to Gelimer's tenure among the shortest-lived in the western post-Roman sequence.
