The saint is shown holding his customary attributes and dressed in ecclesiastical robes, positioned centrally within the field. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy, reading · BLAV-S GORGI·, referencing the religious and civic identity of the issuing city.

Aanvullende informatie

Antivari — modern Bar, in Montenegro — spent much of the early fifteenth century caught between Venetian ambitions and the expanding Ottoman frontier. Balsa III ruled as lord of Zeta from 1403 until his death at the Battle of Maclodio's distant shadow, finally ceding Antivari itself to Venice in 1423, just two years after this coinage series ends. The civic mint operated under acute political pressure throughout this period, producing silver in small quantities for a town that changed suzerain allegiances more than once per decade.

Dobrinić's reference 3.1.1.8 places this among the rarer documented issues of the Zetan lordship.
