Historical background


LYON (LUGDUNUM)

(7th-8th centuries)

The Merovingian coinage of Lyon is broken down into Roman imitations, triens of Frankish kings, coins and a large series of triens "struck in Forez and Vivarais during the Saracen occupation" (divided into three groups). With regard to money, a denarius is in the name of Rognoaldus otherwise, all denarii are episcopal. These denarii are characterized by the legend LV(G) and a cross confined to the letters EPS.
