Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Tremissis - Wamba (Toleto) coin is that it was issued during the reign of King Wamba, who was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to unify the Visigothic Kingdom.

Today, however, it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item, with some examples selling for thousands of dollars at auction.
