| Reverse description | An eagle with closed wings stands facing left, rendered in high relief with detailed feathering on the wings and tail. The bird occupies the central field of the coin, flanked on both sides by a Nabataean inscription reading in two columns. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. The eagle, a common Nabataean dynastic symbol, is depicted with its head turned slightly, conveying a sense of heraldic dignity consistent with royal Nabataean coinage of the period. |
