Commentary


Poids lourd. Normalement d’après W. Hahn, cette émission bien particulière du decanummium serait datée entre le 1er septembre et le 25 novembre 602. Le poids lourd de cet exemplaire pourrait laisser penser à une datation plus ancienne avec l’indiction 6 correspondant aux années 587/588.

Historical background


MAURICIUS TIBERIUS

(08/13/582-11/22/602)

Maurice succeeded his father-in-law Tiberius II. After great victories over the Sassanids, he suffered many setbacks in the Balkans and could not prevent the installation of the Slavs and Avars. A military plot overthrew him in 602. He was assassinated while trying to take refuge with Chosroes II.
