Byzantine unidentified...
Hi all,
This one is a big question mark for me -22mm diameter -4.82g -die alignment - about 7 -Bronze but has some silvering (or coating of another material?) -Obverse: The Virgin Mary with hands raised, the infant Christ facing "MP-OV" -Reverse: 1/2 view of St. Demetrius of Thessalonika standing, facing, his right hand raised, his left hand holding a globe. "DH..." Doesn't seem to be a coin type I am familar with, token of some type, Bulla of some type? Any idea? Regards, Andrew |

No, on the back is not a saint, but the ruler is shown. He holds his arm down. With his hand he holds a labarum. The false impression created by the remains of a older coin stamped on.
