Reverse description Enthroned frontal figure, interpreted as Victory or the emperor, seated and holding a globus cruciger in the right hand, symbolizing Christian imperial dominion over the world. A star appears prominently to the left of the central figure within the field, a diagnostic feature of this type. A Latin legend surrounds the design, and the exergue bears the mint control mark CONOB, denoting the standard fineness of the Constantinople solidus. The composition follows the Victory-throne reverse type established under Theodosius II, here rendered in the barbarous imitative tradition with characteristic simplifications.
