Beschrijving keerzijde Central monogram composed of the interlaced letters of ROMA, surmounted by a cross above and flanked by pellets and a star below, all within a circular Latin legend. The monogram is boldly struck in the field, with a small pellet at centre, consistent with Theoderic's royal cipher as documented in Metlich and Demo. The surrounding legend reads AINVIVT A ROMAD, a scrambled rendering of INVICTA ROMA, characteristic of Gepid imitative pieces struck at Sirmium. Additional decorative elements including a cross at top and a star at bottom punctuate the field around the monogram.

Aanvullende informatie

Sirmium — modern Sremska Mitrovica in Serbia — was one of the most strategically contested cities in late antiquity, and the Gepids held it only by Theoderic's sufferance after the Ostrogothic settlement of Italy in 493. These fractional silver pieces were struck in Theoderic's name but under Gepid administration, a peculiar arrangement that reflects the layered tributary relationships of post-Roman barbarian politics. The angled bust variant is distinguished from related issues by die work suggesting a separate hand at the Sirmium mint, and Metlich's treatment remains the most granular published analysis of the series.
