Reverse description The imperial couple — Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan and Empress Jelena — depicted standing facing, each crowned and in full imperial regalia; they jointly hold a tall patriarchal double-barred cross at centre, while each also bears a cross-tipped sceptre in the outer hand. A Cyrillic Serbian legend appears in the field. The composition reflects the dynastic propaganda typical of Nemanjić-era coinage, rendered in a flat, hieratic Byzantine style.
