Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Tremissis - Moneyer Arnoaldus (Paris) (620-640) made of Gold weighing 1.27 g is that it was minted during the early Middle Ages, a time when gold coins were not as widely used as they are today. The fact that this coin was made of gold and had a relatively small weight of 1.27 grams suggests that it may have been used for small transactions or as a form of currency in a specific region or community. Additionally, the fact that it was minted in Paris, France, during the 7th century suggests that it may have been used in the context of the Frankish Empire, which was a powerful and influential empire in Western Europe during that time.
