Christophoros 32 was a notarios (perhaps a clerical notarios, see below); owner of a seal dateable to the second half of the ninth century: Zacos II 1064. Obv.: cruciform monogram of Κύριε βοήθει with τω - σω - δου - λω in the corners. Rev.: cross with eight point stars in the corners; circular inscription of +Χριστοφωρω πενηχρω νοταρ. The name and title read: Χριστοφόρῳ πενιχρῷ νοταρίῳ. The use of the word πενιχρός perhaps indicates that he was a cleric.
