Excerpt from Catalogue of the Imperial Byzantine Coins, Vol. 1 of 2: In the British Museum The alleged representation of euphemia, the wife of Justin I, on the reverse of a. Small bronze coin of her husband (sab., i, p. 167, No. 59; cp. Me'm. Soc. Arch. St. Pe't., The close of the year 527 ushers us into the spacious times of Justinian, of Belisarius and Tribonian. The character of Justinian was one strangely compounded of elements Of strength and weakness, and even his ability has been depreciated as of a mediocre type. Yet he was certainly the cause of greatness in others, and was himself inspired with an exalted, or at least grandiose, sense of the dignity of Empire. His great ideals were those of Imperial and Christian unity 1-ideals to be attained by the re-conquest Of the ancient Empire of Rome and by the organization and surveillance of State and Church in every detail.
