| Reverse description | Draped bust of King Ezana facing right, wearing a headcloth, with the royal titulary legend divided to either side of the effigy within a solid inner circle. The reverse portrait closely mirrors the obverse in style and composition, a common feature of Aksumite regal coinage, with the royal title ΒΑCIΛЄΥC flanking the bust. The field is plain beyond the inner circle, consistent with the compact flan of this denomination. |
