正面描述 Facing helmeted and cuirassed bust of Emperor Justinian I rendered in the frontal Byzantine imperial style, with the emperor depicted wearing a plumed helmet and military cuirass. The right hand holds a globus cruciger, symbolizing Christian imperial authority over the world, while the left arm supports a large decorated shield. A cross appears in the upper right field. The bold peripheral legend in Latin capitals proclaims the emperor's full titulature. The portrait conveys the majestic, hieratic quality characteristic of mid-sixth-century Byzantine coinage from the Antioch mint.

附加信息

By the time this issue was struck, Antioch had endured decades of catastrophe: sacked by the Sasanians under Khosrow I in 540, devastated by plague in 542, and then leveled by earthquake in 526 and again in 528. The city Justinian resettled and rebuilt was substantially renamed Theopolis — "City of God" — which accounts for the mint signature on this coin. Production here was fitful, dependent on a recovering urban infrastructure and a population that had been reduced to a fraction of its former size.

The regnal years covered by this emission correspond to Justinian's final years, when the great legislative and military programs had largely exhausted the treasury.
