Object card
English, translated from the French record
Byzantine bronze coin, dekanoummion type, dated 660/661, from square L IV/γ5 in the Campanopetra sector of Salamis, Cyprus. Inventory M_1480; 3.20 g, diameter 19 mm, die axis 6 h. The obverse appears to bear a legend that is now illegible: perhaps a variant, or a trace of an earlier strike? The condition of the coin makes this difficult to decide. Inventory M_1480; 23 May 1974.
