Beschrijving voorzijde	Bare male head facing right, rendered in a bold, somewhat archaic style characteristic of Numidian royal coinage. The hair is depicted in thick, deeply incised parallel striations falling in layers to the nape of the neck. The facial features are strongly modelled, with a pronounced brow, broad nose, and full lips. The flan is irregular and somewhat broad, with the portrait occupying the central field. No legend or inscription is present.

Beschrijving keerzijde	Head of Africa facing right, wearing the distinctive elephant-skin headdress, a canonical personification type widely used in Numidian and related North African coinage. The scalp and trunk of the elephant are rendered in relief over the crown of the head, with the ear and tusk visible framing the face. The facial features are modelled in a naturalistic Hellenistic style. The flan is irregular, and no surrounding legend or exergual inscription is present.
