| Reverse description | Facing bust of the co-emperor Constantine, son of Leo V, depicted wearing a jewelled crown and chlamys in the standard Byzantine imperial manner. He holds a globus cruciger in his right hand and an akakia in his left, emblems of imperial authority. The frontal portrait follows the established Byzantine numismatic convention for junior co-emperors, with the surrounding field bearing a Greek legend identifying Constantine as Despot. |
