| Beschrijving voorzijde | Male bust facing right, rendered in a stylized South Arabian artistic tradition derived from Roman coin prototypes. The hair is depicted in bold, striated locks falling to the neck, with a beaded or pellet border visible at the shoulder. A suspension loop or ring device appears above the head in the upper field, flanked by pellets. The bust is set within a plain circular border, with a short exergual line beneath. The overall style reflects the Himyarite adaptation of late Roman Republican and early Imperial coin imagery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Himyarite kingdom of southwestern Arabia produced silver coinages that drew heavily on South Arabian and Roman monetary traditions simultaneously — an unusual convergence that reflects the region's position astride incense and spice routes connecting the Mediterranean world with India and East Africa. ʿAmdān Bayān Yahaqbiḍ was a ruler of Raydan, one of the competing tribal polities that Himyar was in the process of absorbing during this period. The quinarius denomination itself is borrowed Roman terminology applied to a distinctly local product.
