| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bold Latin cross with double-beaded arms occupies the central field, with a six-pointed star or asterisk ornament placed in each of the four angles formed by the arms. The entire design is enclosed within a laurel or olive wreath, its tied ends visible at the base, framed by a beaded border at the coin's periphery. No additional legend is present. The cross motif, characteristic of Ravenna mint issues of Justinian I, conveys the emperor's Christian imperial authority and reflects the religious iconography standard to decanummium coinage of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ravenna's mint operated under Byzantine authority following Justinian's reconquest of Italy from the Ostrogoths, a campaign concluded in 540 when Belisarius entered the city without resistance. The mint there retained certain provincial habits — fabric and module often diverge noticeably from Constantinople's output, and the Ravenna 10 Nummi is among the more variable issues of the reign in terms of centering and flan preparation.
DOC I#364 places this type within a sequence reflecting administrative normalization of the Italian prefecture, coinage being one of the more immediate tools for broadcasting restored imperial authority to a population that had lived under Ostrogothic rule for decades.
