| Reverse description | Three-quarter length facing figure of the Virgin Mary (Theotokos) in the orans posture, with both arms raised and hands extended outward in prayer. The figure is rendered in a frontal Byzantine manner, flanked on either side by a stylized plant or foliate ornament in the field. The composition closely follows Byzantine iconographic conventions adapted by the Norman rulers of Apulia and Calabria for their coinage at Salerno. |
