BYZANTINE, Tiberius III Apsimar, A.D.698-705, AV Solidus
TIBERIUS III (Apsimar). 698-705 AD. AV Solidus (20mm, 4.01 gm, 6h). Italian mint. 
Obv: d TIbE RI Au, crowned and cuirassed facing bust, holding spear and shield. 
Rev: VICTORIA AuSu, cross potent on three steps; small crosses flanking; CONOB. 
DOC II 22 (Syracuse); MIB II 34 (Syracuse); SB 1381 (Syracuse). VF, ragged flan. Rare. 
All the references ascribe this piece to Syracuse, but style and more importantly the metal content are not normal for Syracuse at this period. Probably one of the Italian mints, but Ricotti Prina, the source for a number of Italian attributions, does not list this coin.
