Byzantines

the original name of Byzantine gold solidi. Subsequently byzantines, or bezants, was the name given to all Oriental gold coins, including the Arab dinars, that were also widely circulated in Western Europe from the ninth century to the 14th. In the 14th century, byzantines were driven out of circulation by sequins (Venetian ducats).
