| Beschrijving voorzijde | Frontal bust of Emperor Tiberius II Constantine, helmeted and crowned, clad in imperial cuirass with decorated pauldrons. The emperor holds a globus cruciger in his right hand, symbolizing Christian imperial authority, while his left arm bears a shield. A small cross appears in the right field. The legend, partially visible around the periphery within a beaded border, identifies the emperor in abbreviated Latin. The overall style is characteristic of late 6th-century Byzantine hammered coinage, with a bold, slightly stylized rendering of the imperial effigy. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tiberius II Constantine elevated himself from Caesar to Augustus in 578 upon the death of Justin II, inheriting a treasury that the empress Sophia had deliberately stripped to deny him resources. The Antioch mint at this period was operating under severe pressure — the city had been sacked by the Sasanians in 573 and only partially recovered, making its output from the late 570s irregular in both volume and execution. Dies from this mint in the Tiberius II series are notably inconsistent, a direct consequence of disrupted craftsman continuity.
