Coin Highlights:
The Byzantine Empire AV Histamenon Nomisma of Michael VII (1071-1078 AD) is a stunning example of medieval Byzantine gold coinage, struck during a time of both political upheaval and artistic refinement. As the son of Constantine X and a ruler during the turbulent years following the Battle of Manzikert, Michael VII’s reign marked the beginning of the empire’s struggles against internal strife and external threats. Despite these challenges, Byzantine numismatic traditions continued to produce gold coins of remarkable craftsmanship and religious significance.
Graded About Uncirculated (AU) by NGC, this coin boasts a Strike rating of 4/5 and a Surface rating of 3/5, offering sharp details and a well-preserved appearance. The obverse features Christ Pantocrator, enthroned in majesty, holding the Gospels while raising his hand in benediction—a powerful representation of divine authority over the empire. The reverse showcases Michael VII standing in imperial regalia, a testament to the enduring symbolism of Byzantine rule.
This Histamenon Nomisma is a remarkable acquisition for collectors who appreciate the artistry and historical depth of Byzantine coinage. Whether you are drawn to its rich gold luster, its connection to a pivotal era, or its religious iconography, this coin presents an extraordinary opportunity to own a tangible piece of Byzantine history.
