Reverse description A potent or globed cross on three steps (Golgotha steps) occupies the centre of the field, rendered in a bold, almost ornamental Lombard style with globular terminals. The letter R, denoting Romoald, appears to the left of the stepped base. The mint signature CONOB, indicating Constantinople as the weight and fineness standard, is placed in the lower exergual area. A circular Latin legend reading VICTORI AVGVS surrounds the central device, all within a beaded border.
