| Obverse description | Plain cross with equal arms enclosed within a beaded or rope-like inner circle, the arms extending to touch the border. Fragmentary Armenian inscriptions occupy the four quadrants around the cross within the circle, and additional Armenian characters appear in the outer field. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of early Cilician Armenian hammered bronze coinage. The overall style is bold and schematic, consistent with the primitive artistic tradition of Roupen I's reign. |
