| Obverse description | Bare, diademed bust of Ptolemy of Mauretania facing right, youthful and beardless, with the diadem ties visible behind the neck. The effigy displays the Hellenistic portraiture style characteristic of the Mauretanian royal coinage. The circumferential Latin legend REX PTOLEMAEVS runs around the periphery of the flan, partially visible on this irregularly shaped hammered flan. |
