| Descrição do anverso |
Bare diademed head of King Juba II facing right, rendered with finely detailed curly hair bound by a diadem, the ribbons visible behind the neck. A club or thyrsus rests over the left shoulder, an attribute associated with Hercules or Dionysus, reflecting Juba's dynastic and cultural pretensions. The portrait displays a refined Hellenistic style with sharp facial features, a prominent nose, and a short beard line. The Latin legend REX IVBA is disposed in the right field, reading downward. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, as typical of Mauretanian hammered silver issues. |

| Descrição do reverso |
A distyle temple facade with flanking peribolus walls rendered in fine architectural detail, the entablature bearing the inscription AVGVSTVS, identifying the structure as a temple dedicated to Augustus. The pediment is ornamented with a central star motif and flanking figures or statues. A prominent crescent surmounts the apex of the pediment, a recurring symbol on Juba II's coinage with probable dynastic or lunar religious significance. The date numeral R•XXXI (regnal year 31, corresponding to 6 AD) appears in the exergue. |
