Reverse description Large denomination mark K occupying the central field, denoting 20 nummi (half follis). A Latin cross is positioned to the left of the K, while an officina letter appears to the right, identifying the workshop of manufacture. The design is bold and schematic, characteristic of the reformed Byzantine copper coinage introduced under Anastasius I in 498 AD. The reverse is enclosed within a plain border, with the field showing typical wear and patination consistent with hammered copper coinage of the period.
