| Reverse description | Draped bust of King Aphilas facing right, wearing an ornate headcloth decorated on the front and terminating in a triangular ribbon behind, holding a whisk or fly-whisk in the right hand. The effigy is flanked on each side by a grain stalk in the field, a typical Aksumite royal emblem. Above the bust, a pellet on crescent device divides the encircling Greek legend. The design is enclosed within a border of dots. |
