Reverse description A ceremonial tripod table depicted in full face, its three legs clearly rendered, flanked on either side by upright palm branches curving outward toward the coin's edge. A dotted border encircles the entire design. The tripod and palm branches are symbols of Hellenistic royal and religious authority, rendered in the typical flat, schematic style of Herodian bronze coinage. The overall composition is centered within the flan.
