Comment
Unique coin known.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Tremissis - Chilperic I (Vermand) coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in the Frankish Kingdoms. Chilperic I, who ruled from 561 to 584, was known for his military campaigns and territorial expansion, which led to the unification of much of Gaul under his rule. The coin's minting can be seen as a reflection of the growing power and influence of the Frankish Kingdoms during this period.
