Justinian II. First reign, 685-695. PB Seal (31mm, 17.19 g, 12h). Virgin Mary, nimbate, standing facing, holding infant Christ before her; cross to either side / Crowned and draped facing bust, holding globus cruciger; cross to right. BLS I, 24. VF, gray-brown patina.

Zacos & Veglery note that “Because of the lack of an inscription, the attribution to Justinian II is tentative and mainly based on the similarity between the imperial portrait on the reverse and that of Justinian II, as found on solidi of this reign.”
