Byzantine coin from the 6th century CE. Obverse: bust of an emperor, facing right; he has a diadem; there are no inscriptions. Reverse: six pointed star. Collector’s note says that this coin is an ‘anonymous issue’. It is most likely from the 6th century CE as the emperor is facing right and wears a diadem, which are practices that became uncommon on coinage beginning in the 7th century CE.
