Obverse description Diademed and draped bust of King Juba II facing right, his hair rendered in fine wavy strands with a royal diadem tied at the back. The portrait is executed in a refined Hellenistic style, reflecting the king's Greco-Roman cultural affinities. The encircling legend REX IVBA appears in Latin characters distributed around the bust, with REX positioned at the lower right and IVBA arching across the upper right field. A dotted border frames the design on the flan's periphery.
