ARAB-BYZANTINE: Justin & Sophia type, 7th century, AE follis (10.57g), NM, "year 8", A-3509, obverse inscription blundered, probably still the names of Justin & Sophia, reverse mint name OENO, which is totally meaningless, ANNO to left and symbol for "8" adjacent to the capital M are very clear, as are the star above the M and the officina letter B, About Very Fine, R, from an American collection. It is uncertain whether this is an imitation of the Sasanian occupation (early 600s to the 620s) or an early Arab issue.
