| Obverse description | Standing figure depicted frontally, both arms raised, each hand holding three stalks of wheat; the entire design is enclosed within a wreath border. The schematic, flat rendering is characteristic of late antique Vandal coinage produced at Carthage. |

| Reverse description | The Roman numeral denomination mark N XLII (denoting 42 Nummi) inscribed in large bold characters at center, all contained within a wreath border. The lettering is rendered in a crude but legible hand consistent with Vandal-period bronze coinage; some specimens are known with retrograde inscription. A secondary symbol — either a cross or a besant — may appear within the wreath on certain die varieties. |
