| Reverse description | A monogram or Christogram device occupies the central field, consistent with the reverse type of RIC X 453 for Theodosius II struck at Antioch, set within a plain field. The reverse legend or exergual mark includes the Antioch mint signature (ANT) followed by an officina letter (A, B, Γ, Δ, or E), denoting one of up to five workshops active at the Antioch mint during this reign. The overall design is severely worn and heavily patinated, rendering precise detail difficult to discern on this example. The composition and style are wholly consistent with the small Æ4 denomination produced in large quantities for everyday circulation in the Eastern Empire. |
