| Reverse description | Central field bearing a Christogram or wreath motif, consistent with late Roman quarter-siliqua reverse types issued in the name of Leo I. The design is enclosed within a dotted border, with the surrounding legend SAL REI PYI CONZ representing a barbarous corruption of SAL REI PVBLICAE / CONOB, the standard formula invoking the welfare of the state and the Constantinople mint. The execution reflects the irregular engraving characteristic of Germanic tribal imitative issues, with letters partially garbled or transposed. |
