Obverse lettering `7` DNS TOMAS R-X BOSNE
(Translation: Lord Tomaš king of Bosnia)
Reverse description Saint Gregory of Nazianzus is depicted full-length, facing forward, standing in a frontal hierarchical pose characteristic of medieval ecclesiastical coinage. The saint holds a crozier in his left hand, with the letter D positioned to his right in the field. The figure is rendered in a stylized, flat relief consistent with the hammered technique of 15th-century Bosnian silver coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central image, with the dedicatory legend distributed around the outer border. The reverse underscores the strong religious identity of the Kotromanić kingdom.
