| Reverse description | A bold potent cross on a globe occupies the centre of the field, its arms terminating in pellets and stepped at each extremity in the potent style. The cross rises from a small globus at its base, symbolizing imperial and Christian dominion. The Latin mint signature and victory legend are arranged around the periphery of the flan, reading VICTORIA AVGV with the Constantinople mint mark CONOB in the lower field or exergue, attesting to the coin's manufacture at the imperial capital to the highest gold standard. |
