| 裏面の説明 | Facing bust of Emperor Constantine XI, crowned with a jewelled stemma adorned with pendilia and wearing the maniakon (imperial collar). Flanking sigla dots (•-•) are disposed across the upper field, with the abbreviated imperial titulature K/I-T/N arranged in the lateral fields, identifying the emperor in the customary late Byzantine epigraphic shorthand. |

Constantine XI was the last Byzantine emperor, killed during the Ottoman siege of Constantinople on May 29, 1453 — the same year this coin was struck. By that point the empire had been reduced to little more than the city itself, and the monetary system had collapsed so thoroughly that silver fractions like this were being produced at weights a fraction of their nominal standard. This piece may well have been among the final coins minted by a Roman emperor in an unbroken succession stretching back over a millennium.
