| Reverse description | Horse's head facing right, rendered in a bold but schematic style, occupying the upper portion of the flan. A horizontal line divides the field, below which the value mark XII appears in large Roman numerals in the exergue. The horse motif is a direct reference to the ancient Carthaginian iconographic tradition. The overall execution is coarse, consistent with the debased municipal bronze coinage struck at Carthage under late Vandal administration. |
