| Obverse description | Facing bust of Christ Pantocrator rendered in Byzantine hieratic style, nimbed with a cruciform nimbus (nimbus cruciger), draped in pallium and colobium. The right hand is raised in the gesture of benediction while the left hand holds the Book of Gospels. The effigy is centrally positioned within the field, characteristic of late Byzantine iconographic convention. |
