Beschrijving keerzijde A plain standing cross occupying the central field, with equal or slightly elongated arms, rendered in the bold, schematic style typical of Merovingian tremisses. The moneyer's name ABOLINO is distributed around the cross in a circular Latin legend. Three pellets are arranged in a row at the base of the cross, a decorative device commonly found on Frankish gold coinage of this period. The flan is irregular, as expected for hammered issues of the era.

Aanvullende informatie

Merovingian tremisses of this period were struck not by a royal mint under centralized control, but by itinerant or locally established moneyers who operated with considerable autonomy — the moneyer's name often carrying more authority on the coin than any royal attribution. Abolinus at Dinant (on the Meuse, in what is now southern Belgium) worked within a monetary system where Austrasia's Frankish rulers had largely inherited late Roman gold-weight conventions without the administrative infrastructure to enforce them.

Dinant was a significant river-trade point, which explains why a moneyer operated there at all.
