| Obverse description | A ship's prow depicted facing right in profile occupies the central field, rendered in low relief with a characteristic ram and oar bank visible beneath the hull. A dotted border or rope-pattern circle surrounds the central device. The coin's flan is irregular and slightly convex, typical of Judaean hammered bronzes of the Herodian period. The letter eta (H) appears in the lower field, possibly as a mint or workshop mark. |
