Global Money Week – “From Barter to Banknotes” - Monetary heyday
This coin, struck under Emperor Alexius I Comnenus (AD 1081–1118), belongs to the post-reform Byzantine monetary system introduced during his reign. The aspron trachy, a distinctive concave coin, became an important denomination in Byzantine commerce and circulated widely throughout the empire. Monetary reforms such as those of Alexius I illustrate how states adapted their coinage systems in response to economic challenges, marking an important stage in the long historical development of money.
Alexius I Comnenus (AD 1081-1118). Post-reform period. Philippopolis (?) mint.

Obv: Christ Pantokrator seated facing on throne
Rev: Alexius standing facing, holding labarum and globus cruciger.
DOC 31a; SB 1936
