正面描述 Facing bust of the emperor, crowned and long-bearded, draped in imperial chlamys; the right hand holds a globus cruciger. A palm frond rises to the right of the bust, serving as a decorative field element. The portrait is rendered in the hieratic frontal style characteristic of mid-seventh-century Byzantine coinage. The flan is notably irregular, as is typical of hammered bronze issues struck at the Syracuse mint during this period.

附加信息

Syracuse served as the Byzantine administrative capital of Sicily and, increasingly through the seventh century, a refuge mint as Arab expansion severed Constantinople's reach across the western Mediterranean. This issue falls within the reign of Constans II, who famously relocated his court to Syracuse around 663 — the only Byzantine emperor to govern from the west — though this coin predates his arrival by roughly a decade, struck during a period of acute fiscal pressure following the Arab conquest of Alexandria in 642, which destroyed a major source of imperial revenue.

The Syracuse mint was notoriously inconsistent in flan preparation and die alignment during this period, and weight variation across surviving specimens is substantial.
