| Reverse description | Large denomination mark K (representing 20 Nummi) prominently displayed in the center of the field, with a cross pattée above the K. The regnal year and mint city are inscribed in the surrounding field: ANNO to the left and the year numeral to the right of the K, with the mint abbreviation TES (for Thessalonica) in the lower field below the K. The reverse follows the standard Byzantine half-follis format, with a plain border and irregular flan typical of hammered provincial coinage of the period. |
