The CBd
Bonner, SMA on CBd-828
British Museum 56459
Obv. Saint standing to front, head with nimbus to r., hands raised. He is dressed in a long tunic, and folds of an upper garment falling from the shoulders are to be seen at his sides. The diagonal folds passing from his left hip to his right knee are perhaps connected with this upper garment, which would in that case have to be simply a long scarf wound round the body crossing on the back. These folds may also be interpreted as an embroidered decoration of the tunic. Star at each side of the head and (less distinct) the ankles. Cross potent with tall upright at each side in lower field.
Rev. ἅγιε Προκόπι (see p. 223).
Haematite. Narrow oval, ca. 30 Χ 15.
