| Reverse description | The central field displays a large upright Greek numeral I (denoting 10 nummi), flanked by a cross potent to the left and the letter K to the right. A horizontal exergual line divides the field, with the mint signature CON inscribed in the exergue, identifying the Constantinople mint. The layout adheres to the standard Byzantine decanummium reverse format established from the reign of Justinian I. The legends and numerals are struck in bold, raised relief on an irregularly shaped copper flan. |
