| Reverse description | Christ Pantocrator depicted standing in full figure within an ornate mandorla or beaded border, facing forward, right hand raised in blessing and left hand holding the Gospels. A cruciform nimbus surrounds the head, with the Greek letters IC and XC flanking the figure at left and right respectively, identifying Jesus Christ. The artistic treatment follows the Byzantine iconographic convention standard to the Venetian grosso coinage, with fine drapery rendered in relief on the hammered silver flan. |
