| Reverse description | Crude Greek inscription arranged in multiple lines across the field, reading + KEBOI OH TOΔV ΛOCOVT ANKPI, a phonetic rendering of the invocation 'Lord help your servant Tancred.' The lettering is irregularly spaced and crowded, filling the entire reverse field in the manner characteristic of early Crusader copper coinage struck at Antioch. No central motif is present; the design relies entirely on the epigraphic content. The flan edges are ragged and uneven, reflecting the informal striking technique of the Antiochene mint under Tancred. |
