Reverse description The enthroned, nimbate figure of Emperor Anastasius I is depicted full-face, robed in consular dress and seated on a jewelled throne. He holds a mappa in his right hand and a sceptre surmounted by a globus cruciger in his left, symbolising imperial and divine authority. An eight-pointed star appears in the left field. The exergue bears the mint mark CONOB, denoting the Constantinople mint and confirming the gold standard, while the reverse legend SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE encircles the composition.
