Obverse description Crowned figure of Konstantin Balšić depicted facing forward in the central field, rendered in a flat, stylised medieval hammered technique characteristic of late 14th-century Balkan coinage. The ruler is shown wearing a rayed or floral crown and holding attributes of authority. A circular legend in uncial Latin characters surrounds the central device within a beaded border, reading CONSTANTINVS REX COS. The overall composition follows Byzantine-influenced iconographic conventions adapted to local workshop production.
