| Obverse description | Jugate diademed busts of Obodas III and his consort Hagaru I facing right, rendered in a stylised Hellenistic manner typical of late Nabataean coinage. The king is portrayed in the foreground with a diadem across his brow, while the queen appears behind and to the left, her hair elaborately dressed with wavy locks cascading to the shoulder. Both figures are shown draped, and the composition is framed by a beaded border. The portrait style reflects a blend of Hellenistic artistic conventions with distinctly regional Nabataean characteristics. |
