Š]YM (king's name in South Arabian) above, royal Qatabanian monogram to left, 'oblong symbol' (of 'Anbi) to right; monogram below. Unpublished, but cf. Huth p. 121, ill. "as 364" for a hemidrachm with the same monograms. Good VF, lightly toned. Excellent metal and clear designs.

Although the name on the reverse of this coin is mostly obscured, there is enough visible to suggest that this is an issue of Shahr Hilal Yuhan'im.
