背面描述	A plain cross with pellets at the terminals occupies the central field, set within a circular beaded or rope border. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner border, with additional inscriptions filling the outer field. The design follows the hybrid Norman-Byzantine tradition of the Sicilian royal tarim, with the cross rendered in bold relief against a flat flan, the whole struck on an irregular planchet with characteristic weak areas at the margins.

附加信息	Henry I of Sicily is better known as Henry VI, Holy Roman Emperor — his Sicilian regnal numbering reflects the Norman succession he inherited through his wife Constance, daughter of Roger II. The union brought the Hohenstaufen dynasty into direct control of southern Italy and Sicily, alarming the papacy and reshaping Mediterranean power politics for a generation. Henry's reign on the island lasted only three years before his death in 1197 at thirty-two, likely from dysentery contracted near Messina. The tari denomination itself derives from the Arabic ṭarī, a direct inheritance from Fatimid coinage produced in Sicily during the island's earlier Islamic period.
