Cross potent; small cross above; small wedge to either side of base.MIR 220; BMC Vandals 1-2.Despite the moment of weakness of the Byzantine Empire, under the rule of Theophilus, and the discord that was tearing the Carolingians apart at the time of Lothair, Sicard failed to take advantage of this to avoid the parable of decline of the principality of Benevento. The anarchy and revolt were the result of several factors, mainly the difficult trading conditions of the principality, the people's constant opposition to any reforms and Sicard's cruelty. The prince, who was at war with the Neapolitan dukedom, stripped churches and monasteries and seized relics to be shipped to Benevento, imprisoning relatives and nobles who could constitute a danger. After a series of plunderings, confiscations and death sentences of citizens and enemies, he was finally killed by the Beneventans, starting a period of anarchy for the principality.

Cross potent set upon three steps.MIB 2; DOC 2a; Sear 1463.Artemius was an imperial secretary during the reign of Philippicus before overthrowing him in 713, ascending the throne as Anastasius II. He immediately took an oath of orthodoxy to move away from the religious views of his predecessor, of monothete faith, in order to realign with tradition. Foreign policy posed a greater danger, as the Arabs were expanding into Asia Minor in the absence of a solid Byzantine dynasty. Anastasius thus organised a great naval expedition to Rhodes, but an internal betrayal led to his defeat and the rebels appointed a new emperor, a tax collector named Theodosius. Anastasius then faced a civil war, which ended after six months when the rebels prevailed with the help of the Ostrogoths. The emperor was forced to become a monk, but continued to plot to regain his throne, trying to gain the help of the Bulgarian Khan. His attempt came to an end with his assassination in 720, during the reign of Leo III, Theodosius' successor Condition: Good extremely fine.Weight: 4.47 g. Diameter: 19 mm.
