Obverse description Central cross with forked or splayed tips set within a beaded inner circle, flanked by four large six-pointed stars in the quarters. The legend IMPERATOR HE / RIC is arranged in two lines across the field, with a small O bearing an internal cross (⊚) positioned beneath the central motif. The entire design is enclosed within an outer beaded border, with additional lettering surrounding the inner circle. The hammered fabric imparts a characteristic concave (scyphate) form to the flan.
