Comments

(en) While this coin is said to be from an Uncertain Germanic Tribe, an uncertain mint, and being struck from the early-5th to early-8th centuries, this coin has enough similarities to the latest issue of 1/2 siliqua pieces from the Gepid Kingdom to place this coin under that tribe. If this coin was struck under the Gepid Kingdom, it would have been minted at Sirmium, and have a similar date-range to the other piece (518-567).
