Reversbeschreibung	The large numeral '10' dominates the central field in bold relief. The circular Arabic legend بنك الجزائر (Bank of Algeria) arcs around the upper portion of the coin, while the denomination دنانير فضية (silver dinars) curves along the lower periphery. The Gregorian year 1994 appears to the lower left and the Hijri year 1415 to the lower right, each accompanied by small era designators in Arabic script.

Zusätzliche Informationen	Jugurtha, the Numidian king who fought Rome to a standstill across nearly two decades before being betrayed by his own father-in-law Bocchus in 105 BC, was a politically charged choice for Algerian coinage in the 1990s — a period when the state was actively reasserting pre-colonial, pre-Arab identity amid a brutal civil conflict with Islamist insurgents. The Bank of Algeria issued this silver piece as part of a broader commemorative program drawing on indigenous North African history rather than Ottoman or French administrative heritage. Jugurtha died in a Roman prison, starved to death following Marius's triumph.
