| Obverse description | Diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Anastasius I facing right, rendered in the late Roman imperial tradition. The emperor wears a pearl diadem and a cuirass with paludamentum fastened at the shoulder, occasionally accompanied by a star on the right shoulder. The portrait occupies the central field with a surrounding Latin legend. The bust conveys the formal, hieratic style characteristic of early Byzantine imperial coinage. |
