| Obverse description | Frontal standing figure of the ruler Balsa III Durdevic, depicted in regal attire with a crown, holding a sceptre in the right hand and an orb or globus cruciger in the left. The figure is rendered in the flat, stylized Byzantine-influenced manner typical of medieval Adriatic coinage. A circular legend in Latin uncial script surrounds the central device, reading the ruler's name and titles. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, characteristic of hammered medieval silver coinage. |
