Reverse description A stylized winged Victory standing facing, rendered in a highly schematic Lombard manner derived from Byzantine prototypes, holding a long staff or cross. The figure is depicted within a beaded border, with a votive or acclamatory legend disposed around the periphery. The execution is characteristic of the debased late antique artistic tradition of Lombard gold coinage.
