Reverse description A stylised ear of wheat or grain stalk occupies the central field, enclosed within a beaded or dotted border forming a circle. The design is executed in a debased, schematic manner typical of late Vandal bronze coinage. No legend is present; the composition is purely symbolic, referencing the agricultural prosperity of North Africa.
