| Reverse description | Facing bearded male head, rendered frontally with large almond-shaped eyes, a broad nose, and a full beard depicted with incised parallel strokes. The face displays archaic stylistic conventions characteristic of Philisto-Arabian coinage, with a slightly rough and bold modelling typical of local die-cutters working under Athenian and Phoenician influence. Two Phoenician letters appear in the field, reading 'ZZ', likely a mint or magistrate mark associated with Gaza. A faint border outlines the design field. |
