| Beschrijving keerzijde | Large denomination mark M (denoting 40 nummi) prominently displayed in the centre of the field, flanked by two stars. A cross appears above the M, and an officina letter is placed beneath. The mint signature ☩THЄЧPº☩ occupies the exergue, identifying the mint of Theopolis (Antioch). The design is characteristic of the reformed Byzantine follis coinage introduced under Anastasius I and continued under Justinian I. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Antioch's mint — operating under the Greek name Theopolis, "City of God," a designation imposed by Justinian himself following the catastrophic earthquake of 526 that killed perhaps 250,000 people — stamps this follis with that theophoric legend as both civic rebranding and imperial piety made physical. The city had barely been rebuilt when it was sacked by the Sassanid Persians under Khosrow I in 540, effectively ending this mint's output in its Antiochene form.
The star flanking the M is specific to Antioch and distinguishes this emission from Constantinople production of the same period.
