| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized bust facing right in late antique tradition, rendered in a schematic Merovingian manner. The effigy displays boldly pelletted eyes, a prominent nose, and a wide open mouth, with the hair indicated by horizontal striations. Multiple pellets are scattered across the field to either side of the bust, three of which appear in a vertical row before the face. A beaded border with a radiate or serrated outer rim frames the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Banassac, in the Lozère, was one of the more productive Merovingian minting sites — a rural location whose output was substantial enough to leave a traceable sequence of named moneyers across the seventh century. Elafius is among the better-documented of these figures, his name appearing consistently enough across surviving pieces to suggest a sustained tenure rather than a fleeting appointment. Merovingian monetary administration devolved heavily onto individual moneyers, who bore personal responsibility for the fineness of their output — a fact reflected in the insistence on naming them directly on the coinage itself.
