Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Tremissis - Heraclius I (Constantinopolis) ND (610-641) coin is that it features an image of the Byzantine Emperor Heraclius I on one side and an image of the Virgin Mary on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Byzantine Empire, with Heraclius I facing challenges from both internal rivals and external threats such as the Sassanid Empire. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the Byzantine Empire and its influence on the history of numismatics.
