| Obverse description | Highly schematized, facing bust of the emperor Heraclius, depicted with a pearl diadem, draped shoulders, and cuirass rendered in a crude barbarian style. The effigy faces right in profile, with the drapery and cuirass indicated by summary incised lines and pellets. The overall artistic treatment reflects the degenerate Lombard imitative tradition, with a beaded border encircling the design. |
