The Solidus gold coin issued by the Byzantine Empire in 641 AD

During the reign of Heraclius, the portrait of "Hekgram" and Jesus Christ from the reign of Justinian II appeared on coins. At first, attempts to use the portrait of Christ on coinage did not last until the latter half of the 9th century, when the images of Jesus Christ and subsequently the Virgin Mary became more common. By the end of the 10th century, Byzantium had produced a series of unnamed bronze coins and new Ginomismas, which lasted for a long time. In the late period, Byzantine coins gradually deteriorated in terms of metal composition and style, to the point where extremely rough coins of Emperor John VIII Palaiologogus appeared.
