Reverse description Frontal enthroned figure, identified by the flanking Greek Christogram as Christ Pantokrator, seated upon an ornate throne with beaded borders visible on either side. The figure is rendered in a hieratic Byzantine style, wearing imperial or sacerdotal robes with fine linear drapery, the right hand raised in a gesture of blessing and the left hand resting in the lap. A beaded inner border frames the central composition, with the abbreviated Christogram IC-XC flanking the upper field and the letter R with Theta (Θ) appearing below, invoking the divine epithet. The hammered flan is irregular in shape, and the overall die style closely follows Byzantine devotional iconography as adapted for Serbian imperial coinage.
