| Obverse description | Laureate and bearded male head facing left, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition and attributed to either Massinissa or Micipsa. The effigy displays thick curling locks of hair beneath the laurel wreath, with pronounced facial features including a strong brow and full beard. The portrait fills the central field with no surrounding legend, consistent with Numidian royal bronze coinage of this period. The flan is irregular and the relief worn, typical of circulated hammered bronzes of North African production. |
