Beschrijving voorzijde Diademed and draped bust of Juba II facing right, portrayed with curly hair bound by a royal diadem, the ends of which fall behind the neck; the effigy reflects Hellenistic royal portraiture conventions adopted by the Mauretanian court. The circular Latin legend REX IVBA runs around the periphery of the field, identifying the issuing monarch. The flan is slightly irregular, as is characteristic of hammered silver coinage of this period and mint.

Aanvullende informatie

Juba II ruled Mauretania as a client king under Augustus — educated in Rome, married to Cleopatra Selene II (daughter of Antony and Cleopatra), and more prolific as a scholar than as a military commander. His coinage output was extraordinary in its volume and variety, struck at Caesarea across a reign spanning roughly four decades. The CNNM#196 variant designation here signals a die combination not captured in the principal references, which is unsurprising given how extensively Juba's mint recycled and recombined obverse and reverse dies.
