1/2 Unit Lixus

Obverse description	Full facing head of Baal-Melkart, bearded and wreathed, rendered in bold relief with a characteristically archaic Punic-Hellenistic style. The deity's long beard and prominent facial features are vigorously modelled, flanked by flowing locks of hair. The entire design is enclosed within a border of large dots running along the coin's periphery. No legend is present in the field.

Reverse description	A large eight-pointed star with a central pellet occupies the centre of the field, flanked on the left by a pendant bunch of grapes and on the right by an upright grain ear, both rendered in a schematic Punic style. These three symbols — star, grape cluster, and grain ear — are emblematic of the Phoenician city of Lixus and reflect its agricultural and religious identity. The flat, unadorned field bears no legend or exergual inscription.
