| | Byzantine coinage - SmartyBrain Encyclopedia and Dictionary |
 | | The new bronze coins were made up of multiples of this coin such as the 40 nummi, 20 nummi, 10 nummi, and 5 nummi coins (other denominations were occasionally produced). | | | In the early ninth century, a three-fourths-weight solidus was issued in parallel with a full-weight solidus, both preserving the standard of fineness, under a failed plan to force the market to accept the underweight coins at the value of the full weight coins. | | | The nummi was an extremely small bronze coin (about 8-10mm), which were inconvient because a large number of them were required even for small transactions. |

| | Ancient Coinage of the Mediterranean World by John E. Ryan |
| | Normally specie coins were made of precious metal, but there were some coinages which were based on the intrinsic value of a base metal such as copper. | | | Coins manufactured by this method also are known as "hammered coins". | | | The coin blanks (planchets) were heated until the metal was soft, and then were inserted between the dies. |

| | Solidus (coin) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Fractions of the solidus known as semisses (half-solidi) and tremissis (one-third solidi) were also produced. | | | The sou tournois was a 12-denier coin, one-twentieth of the livre tournois (Tournois pound), while the sou parisis was a 15-denier coin. | | | The name solidus had previously been used by Diocletian (284-305) for the gold coin that he introduced, which is different from the solidus introduced by Constantine. |

| | The Development of the Byzantine Solidus |
| | Although the introduction of the solidus did not result immediately in coin designs significantly different from those of the second and third centuries, over the course of the following two centuries the solidus gradually evolved into a coinage with an appearance and identity of its own. | | | Despite being replaced by the tetarteron and histamenon in the tenth century under Nicephorus II Phocas (A.D. 963-969), the solidus illustrates many of the most significant developments that occurred in coin design during the Byzantine period. | | | On the reverse, pagan subjects popular at the time of Constantine, such as the winged Victory, are transformed by the incorporation of Christian symbols. |
