| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Aretas IV facing right, rendered in the schematic Nabataean style characteristic of the early first century AD. The effigy displays a simplified profile with stylized hair and laurel wreath. A single Nabataean letter He (ח) appears in the left field, serving as a mint or regnal identifier. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat off-center, typical of hammered Nabataean bronze coinage of this period. |
