| Reverse description | Bearded male bust facing right, rendered in a style closely imitating Hellenistic portraiture, with short beard and schematically modeled facial features. A royal monogram or dynastic symbol appears below the bust in the lower field, with an additional monogram to the left and a further symbol to the right, all executed in the South Arabian epigraphic tradition. The field is otherwise plain, and the flan edges are irregular. The overall composition reflects the Qatabanian practice of adapting Greek coin types to local royal iconographic conventions. |
