| Reverse description | A horse's head facing left is depicted in the upper field, rendered in a bold, schematic style evoking the ancient Punic coinage tradition of Carthage. A palm branch extends to the right of the horse's head, a symbol long associated with Carthaginian numismatic iconography. A horizontal line divides the field, below which the value mark XLII appears in large Roman numerals, denoting 42 nummi. The design is contained within a border of dots, and the overall composition is spare and legible. |
