Obverse description Facing bust of Christ Pantocrator depicted in crude, provincial style, with nimbus visible behind the head. The figure is shown from the shoulders upward, with a decorative loros or collar across the chest featuring a beaded or dotted ornamental panel. Flanking the bust are stylized foliate or scroll elements extending into the field. The overall execution reflects the rough hammered coinage typical of the Crusader states.
