| Reverse description | Two facing imperial busts side by side: on the left, Heraclius Constantine depicted as co-emperor, and on the right, Empress Martina. A small cross potent is placed between the two heads, serving as a central dividing element and a symbol of imperial Christian authority. The busts are rendered in the simplified, stylized manner typical of Byzantine minor silver coinage of the Heraclian period. The flan is small and irregular, with little room for a surrounding legend. |
