| Reverse description | Schematic representation of a symbol or emblem associated with the Himyarite royal authority, rendered in the abbreviated lapidary style characteristic of small silver fractions attributed to ʿAmdān Bayān Yahaqbiḍ. The design is set within a beaded circle, with pellet or linear devices in the surrounding field. The composition reflects the highly stylized engraving conventions of Southern Arabian coinage of this period. |
