Obverse description Stylized eagle displayed in the central field, rendered in the schematic South Arabian hammered tradition, with wings spread and head turned to the right. The bird stands on a ground line, its plumage indicated by bold parallel striations. An Ancient South Arabian letter, likely a royal or mint mark, appears to the upper left of the eagle. The overall design reflects the Himyarite adaptation of Roman imperial iconography blended with indigenous South Arabian artistic conventions.
