| Reverse description | Three stalks of barley (ears of grain) arranged upright and fanned outward from a common base, their heads clearly differentiated and rising toward the upper field of the coin. The motif occupies the majority of the reverse field with no accompanying legend, emphasizing the agricultural and fertility symbolism associated with Isis and the prosperity of the Mauretanian kingdom. The design is executed in bold, schematic relief typical of hammered bronze provincial coinage of the period. |
