| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing bust of Emperor Phocas, crowned and wearing imperial loros mantle, rendered in the frontal hieratic style characteristic of early 7th-century Byzantine coinage. The emperor holds a mappa or map in his right hand and an orb surmounted by a cross in his left, both emblems of imperial authority. The portrait, though struck on an irregular flan, displays the broad-shouldered frontal convention standard to the Carthage mint of this period. The surrounding field retains traces of the Latin legend. The strike is typical of the provincial Carthage workshop, with characteristic coarse fabric. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central denomination mark composed of two large X characters (representing XX, i.e. 20 nummi), separated by a horizontal bar, rendered in bold strokes characteristic of the Carthage mint. A cross appears above the denomination mark at the apex, and the Greek letter epsilon (ε) is visible to the right, serving as an officina or regnal year indicator. Below the denomination mark, the mint signature KRTG (an abbreviation for Carthago) is inscribed in the exergue. The overall design is set within the irregular, roughly circular flan typical of hammered Carthaginian issues of Phocas. |
