| Obverse description | Laureate head of Titus facing right, rendered in high relief with fine portraiture characteristic of Flavian die work. The legend encircles the bust within the beaded border of the coin's field, reading T CAESAR IMPEP PONT. The portrait displays the emperor's characteristic features with close-cropped hair beneath the laurel wreath, the neck truncation sharply defined. The style is consistent with provincial Judaea Capta coinage struck under Titus as Caesar during the reign of Vespasian. |

| Reverse description | Judaea personified as a captive female figure seated in mourning to the right upon a military cuirass, positioned beneath a tall, slender palm tree whose fronds spread across the upper field — the quintessential symbol of the conquered province. To the left of the central composition, captured arms and shields are depicted. The senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is prominently placed in the left and right fields flanking the central design. The overall composition follows the canonical Judaea Capta type commemorating the Roman suppression of the Jewish revolt of AD 66–73. |
