| Beschrijving voorzijde | Highly schematized and degenerate rendering of Zeus enthroned left, reduced to an abstract stick-figure form characteristic of South Arabian imitative coinage. The deity holds an eagle in the outstretched right hand and a long scepter in the left, following the Alexandrine prototype in general composition. Traces of a peripheral legend in Ancient South Arabian script are discernible in the field, though heavily stylized and largely illegible. The die work reflects the progressive abstraction typical of local Arabian workshop imitations produced far from Hellenistic centres. The flan is broad and irregular, with a pronounced convexity visible on the reverse side. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is entirely plain and uninscribed, presenting a smooth, convex flan surface with no design, legend, or symbolic device. This blank reverse is characteristic of certain South Arabian imitative tetradrachms of this series, where the die engraver omitted the standard Alexandrine reverse type of the striding Heracles or related motif. The surface shows natural flan texture and tool marks consistent with hammered production. No exergual inscription or control mark is present. |
