| Reverse description | A full-length frontal figure of Christ is depicted standing, nimbed, with a book held in the left hand and the right hand raised in a gesture of benediction. The figure is rendered in a hieratic, stylized manner typical of late Venetian medieval-revival religious iconography on small billon coinage. The surrounding legend, divided by ornamental stops, reads as an invocation of divine protection. The overall composition is centrally placed within the coin's field, with the legend encircling the periphery. |
