| Reverse description | Central field dominated by a large Greek letter Epsilon (Є), serving as the numeral mark for five nummi, with a small cross positioned at its centre. An officina letter appears to the right of the Є, identifying the workshop responsible for striking the coin; some specimens additionally bear a pellet beneath the Є. The design is stark and functional, with no exergual inscription, reflecting the utilitarian character of small Byzantine bronze denomination coinage produced at Antioch. |
