Reverse description Half-length facing bust of Christ Pantokrator depicted in orans or benediction pose, with both arms raised and hands extended outward. The figure is rendered in a stylized Byzantine manner typical of Bulgarian trachy coinage of the fourteenth century. The Christogram IC-XC appears divided across the field to either side of the bust. The overall composition follows standard Byzantine iconographic conventions adapted by the Vidin mint workshop.
