| Beschrijving keerzijde | Large Greek numeral K (denoting 20 nummi, equal to one-half follis) prominently displayed in the central field, flanked by the regnal date formula ANNO XXII arranged vertically to either side. A cross surmounts the K in the upper field. The mint signature PΛ appears beneath the central numeral, and the exergual inscription KART identifies the Carthage mint. The layout follows the standard Byzantine denominational reverse type established for the reformed coinage, adapted at Carthage with distinctive local mint marks. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carthage's mint operated under direct imperial oversight following Justinian's reconquest of North Africa from the Vandals in 533 — a campaign that took General Belisarius less than two years to complete. The regnal year PΛ (year 31 of Justinian's reign) places this piece in the period when the African provinces were still being administratively consolidated, with the Carthage mint producing notably heavier flans than its Constantinople counterpart, a regional idiosyncrasy that persisted through much of the sixth century.
