| Obverse description | Facing enthroned effigy of King Roger II, depicted in frontal Byzantine style seated upon a high-backed throne, robed in regal garments with hands resting in a formal ceremonial posture. The figure is rendered with the stylized rigidity characteristic of Italo-Norman coinage influenced by Byzantine iconographic conventions. Greek inscription flanks the enthroned king on both sides of the field, identifying the ruler by name and title. |
