Reverse description Facing bust of Jesus Christ in Byzantine style, depicted with a nimbus (halo) and wearing imperial vestments, rendered in the manner of contemporary Byzantine numismatic portraiture. Christ raises his right hand in a gesture of benediction and holds the Gospels in his left hand. A Cyrillic or proto-Cyrillic inscription runs in the surrounding field. The representation closely follows the iconographic type of Christ Pantocrator as seen on Byzantine coinage of the period.
