| Reverse description | Bust of King Wazeba facing right, wearing a headcloth with its ends gathered and knotted in a rounded ribbon trailing behind. The king's right hand holds a ceremonial whisk, with flanking wheat stalks framing the effigy on either side. Above the head, the royal name is rendered as a Ge'ez monogram (ወዘበ). In the upper field, three pellets rest upon a crescent symbol, distinguishing this side from the obverse. |
