| Obverse description | Diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Anastasius I facing right, wearing a pearl diadem with pendant strands and an elaborately decorated paludamentum fastened at the right shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the late antique Roman imperial tradition, with fine detailing on the drapery and beaded ornamentation. The surrounding Latin legend reads D N ANASTA - SIVS PP AVG, distributed on either side of the bust. The flan is irregular, as characteristic of hammered Ostrogothic tremisses struck in the name of the Eastern emperor. |
