Byzantine Empire. Anastasius I 491-518 AD. 10 Nummi / Decanummium (No reserve price)
The Byzantine Empire under Emperor Anastasius I (reign 491-518 AD) marked an important period of reform and consolidation. Anastasius is particularly known for significant monetary reforms, including the introduction of new bronze coinages. The 10 nummi, also called a decanummium, was a bronze denomination introduced during his reign and represented a key part of the empire’s everyday currency system. Bronze coins like these were used for smaller transactions, circulating widely among the population. Their debasement and standardization helped stabilize the Byzantine economy after turbulent times.
