|Remarks="Overstruck on a Ptolemaic bronze issue, likely Ptolemy II or III, with much of the undertype visible. The use of Ptolemaic bronzes as flans for early Nabataean coinage is well demonstrated by overstrikes. Interestingly, one often encounters a reversal of obverse and reverse of the undertype in relation to the overstrike, as can be seen on this example."
