Struck during a period of great tension between the Byzantine Empire and the Western European Crusader forces, this coin is symbolic of Manuel’s desire to preserve the power and independence of the Byzantine realm from the ever-threatening Latins. The patriarchal cross on the reverse of the coin, a major symbol of Orthodox Christianity, would have signaled Isaac’s desire to protect his people, empire, and faith from the hostile Roman Catholic Crusaders, as would the depiction of the messiah. A great bible/biblical, Christian, and Jesus associated piece of history. This is a rare piece with sharp luxurious detail and an beautiful overall look. It has been awarded high marks by NGC. Quite a rare and remarkable piece! It doesn’t get much better than this! As always, this piece is Guaranteed 100% Genuine. A great investment and a beautiful piece. You won’t be disappointed!!
