| Obverse description | Frontal bust of Emperor Leo III, facing, wearing a jewelled crown adorned with pendilia and a loros draped across the chest and shoulders. The emperor holds a cross-tipped sceptre in his right hand and is depicted in full imperial regalia with elaborate dotted ornamentation. The bust is rendered in the characteristic flat, hieratic Byzantine style. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy in the field. |
