Tremissis - Moneyer Audomarus Namur

Merovingian tremisses of this period were struck by semi-autonomous moneyers operating under loose royal oversight, and Audomarus at Namur represents exactly that fragmented monetary reality — a local craftsman issuing coin in his own name from a mint whose political allegiance shifted repeatedly between Austrasian and Neustrian factions across the seventh century. Namur's position on the Meuse made it commercially active enough to sustain a mint, but few moneyers there are as well-documented in the reference literature as this one.
