| Reverse description | Central field dominated by a large Greek numeral Є (epsilon), denoting the denomination of five nummi, enclosed within a double linear border. A cross pattée (patriarchal cross) appears to the right of the Є, serving as the type identifier symbol. The design is bold and schematic, consistent with the utilitarian character of small Byzantine copper coinage, with the denomination mark rendered in high relief within a plain, unadorned field. |
