| Obverse description | Two standing imperial figures facing, each holding a long cross-staff; a smaller cross on steps appears between them in the field. The figures are rendered in a debased Byzantine imperial style, with schematic drapery and simplified facial features characteristic of early Arab-Byzantine transitional coinage. The composition closely imitates late Byzantine folles of the standing-emperor type. |
