| Beschrijving keerzijde | Large denominational mark M occupying the central field, flanked by a six-pointed star to the left and a crescent to the right, with a cross potent above the M. An officina letter appears beneath the M in the lower field. The mint signature ☩THЄЧP is inscribed in the exergue, identifying the Antioch mint under its renamed designation Theopolis. The reverse design follows the standard Justinianic follis format established at the 498 monetary reform, with the value mark as the dominant decorative and functional element. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Antioch's mint was one of the most politically loaded production centers in the early Byzantine system — close enough to the Persian frontier that its output reflected military financing as much as monetary policy. The ☩THЄЧP mint signature on this type identifies the Theoupolis workshop, the name Justinian imposed on Antioch after the catastrophic earthquake of 526 AD killed upward of 250,000 people. He rebuilt the city and renamed it "City of God." The coinage followed the new name almost immediately.
The crescent and star flanking the M place this piece within a specific officina sequence that numismatists use to track production chronology across the Antioch issues of this reign.
