| Reverse description | Diademed and draped bust of the young co-regent Ptolemy facing left, rendered with curling hair and a prominent diadem; drapery falls across the chest and shoulder in a Hellenistic manner. The surrounding Latin legend, bearing the royal title, is inscribed retrograde around the field within a beaded border, a notable feature of Mauretanian coinage under Juba II. The bust is positioned centrally with fine detail in the facial features and hair, reflecting the Greco-Roman artistic tradition prevalent at the court of Caesarea. |
