Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Tremissis - Leovigildo (Amasio) coin is that it was issued during a time of great turmoil in the Visigothic Kingdom. King Leovigildo, who ruled from 568 to 586, faced several challenges during his reign, including internal power struggles and external threats from neighboring kingdoms. Despite these challenges, he was able to maintain stability and prosperity in the kingdom, and his coins, like the Tremissis, remain a testament to the kingdom's economic and cultural achievements during that time.
