| Reverse description | Eagle displayed facing, wings fully spread, standing atop a thunderbolt, with head turned to the right and holding a laurel wreath in its beak. A transverse scepter or thyrsus rests diagonally over the eagle's left wing, serving as a symbol of royal and divine authority. A crescent symbol appears below the thunderbolt in the lower field, a recurring emblem on Juba II's coinage with possible Ptolemaic or lunar dynastic connotations. The reverse field is plain with no legend, the design occupying most of the flan within a beaded border. |
