| Reverse description | Large numeral I, denoting the denomination of 10 nummi (decanummium), surmounted by a cross and typically flanked by pellets on either side, occupying the central field. The officina letter appears to the left of the central device, with the legend CONCORD arranged around the field. The mint signature CON appears in the exergue, identifying the Constantinople mint. The design follows the reformed coinage module introduced by Anastasius I in 498 AD, with bold, easily legible denominational markings. |
