| Reverse description | Full-length facing figure of Emperor Constantine IX Monomachos, crowned and clad in imperial loros and military attire, standing on a footstool. The emperor holds a tall patriarchal cross in his right hand and a sword in his left. A circular legend in Greek surrounds the figure, identifying the ruler. The composition follows the standard Byzantine imperial iconography of the mid-eleventh century, with the emperor portrayed in frontal hieratic stance befitting his sacred authority. |
