| Reverse description | A plain Latin cross occupies the center of the field, surrounded by a circular Latin legend reading ARIIAHGLVS II, an abbreviated invocation of the Archangel Michael, the patron and protector associated with Lombard and South Italian princely coinage. The cross is bold and well-centered, with the surrounding inscription running close to the beaded or plain border of the irregularly struck flan. The overall composition reflects the Carolingian-influenced ecclesiastical iconography prevalent in the coinage of the Lombard principalities of southern Italy during the ninth century. |
