Reverse description Central field presents a frontal enthroned figure, rendered in a flat, schematic Byzantine manner consistent with Adriatic follaro coinage of the period. The figure, identifiable as the Virgin Mary (Maria) by the surrounding legend, is depicted seated with arms partially raised in an orant or enthroned pose. Drapery folds are summarily indicated in low relief. The legend SE-M-AR-IA P-L is distributed around the figure in the field, constituting a fragmented invocation of the Virgin as patron of the city. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, reflecting the characteristic output of the Dulcigno municipal mint under Serbian occupation.
