Historical background
ROUEN - UNSPECIFIED MINT OF THE CIVITAS ROTOMAGENSIUM
(early 8th century)
Rouen struck several types of deniers with a rose on the reverse and presenting a head of profile on the reverse or an A topped with a cross. The specimens with a rose and the face head seem to have been struck in the Rouen region. These three types are found in the treasure of Plassac (Gironde) hidden around 710-730.
