| Reverse description | A large central K, denoting the denomination of 20 nummi (half-follis), dominates the reverse field. To the left of the K, a cross divides the mint mark AN above and TX below, together forming the Antioch mint signature ANTX. An officina letter appears to the right of the K, identifying the workshop responsible for the striking. The design is stark and functional, typical of Anastasian bronze coinage, with all elements arranged in a bold, legible layout on an irregular copper flan. |
