| Obverse description | Christ Pantokrator depicted standing facing within a mandorla, rendered in a Byzantine-influenced style typical of Ragusan medieval coinage. The bust of St. Blaise appears on the breast of Christ, a distinctive iconographic feature of this series. The abbreviated Greek Christogram IC - XC flanks the central figure in the field, inscribed in uncial Latin characters. The overall design reflects the strong Eastern Christian artistic traditions that influenced the Republic of Ragusa during the 15th century. |
