Possibly-Merovingian-8th-Century

This weighs 0.91 grams and has a diameter of 14-15 mm.

It was claimed to be 8th century Merovingian, but I am not assuming that. It does have the crude style of the era.

One side looks like it has letters N K, and the other looks like it has letters L H V.

That's an era I have only dipped my toe in, but I don't recall seeing any with only lettering both sides.

But I think uncataloged types are surfacing constantly based on what I see in CNG auctions.

Edit: OK, I was only half wrong. Here's one with only lettering, though not matching yours. https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=17116137
Previously unpublished (that's the half right part ).
