| Reverse description | Central field occupied by the prominent monogram of Theoderic, rendered in a bold, angular style with a cross positioned above; the design is surrounded by a partial Latin legend. The monogram and cross together reflect the dual authority of Ostrogothic-Gepid kingship and Roman imperial tradition, with the overall die work displaying the irregular, hand-hammered character typical of barbarian imitative coinage struck at Sirmium. |
