GERMANY, Merseburg (City). Circa 1010. AR Denar (17mm, 1.10 g, 4h). Christogram flanked by pellets / CAE/ VICT/ SAR. Dannenburg 1190 (Uncertain); Kluge, “Conspectus Nummorum Germaniae Medii Aevi (CNG). Teil 7: Overlothringen (6) – Die Abteien Echternach und Prüm,” in Geldgeschichtliche Nachrichten 200 (November 2000), 20.1 (Prüm); P. Ilisch, “Oberlothringen oder sächsisch-slawisches Grenzgebiet?,” in Geldgeschichtliche Nachrichten 206 (January 2002). Toned, peck marks and wavy flan as usual. VF.

From the James A. Lock Collection.

Ilisch reattributes this type away from Prüm, as both site finds and the weight standard indicate an origin in Saxony, likely at Merseburg.
