| Reverse description | The reverse bears five lines of Greek inscription in bold, raised characters filling the entire field, without any figural design. The legend invokes the intercession of the Theotokos (God-bearer) on behalf of Constantine Doukas, identified by his imperial title of Despot. The lettering is rendered in the characteristic rounded Byzantine majuscule style, with a beaded border visible at the rim. |
