Note: According to Sear's Byzantine
Coins and Their Values, on page 110, Mr. Sear notes on coin 447, the legends in
this series are normally blundered. Also, the series can only be differentiated
from the Maurice Tiberius pieces of his nearly identical series by the
ornament on the emperor's crown. Tiberius II has a cross, where Maurice
Tiberius has a trefoil ornament.
