Syllaeus and either Oodas or Aretas IV; I'm not sure which is the current attribution.

It is Meshorer 43, the head is there said to be the one of Obodas III.

In Karl Schmitt-Korte, "Nabataean Coinage—Part II. New Coin Types and Variants", Numismatic Chronicle 150 (1990), pp. 105-133, it is still said to be the head of Obodas.

In that case the label on mine is correct.
