Obverse description Laureate and draped bust of Titus Caesar facing right, depicted as heir apparent. The effigy shows the characteristic Flavian portrait style with a laurel wreath crowning the head. The Greek legend ΤΙΤΟΣ ΚΑΙΣΑΡ is disposed around the bust in the field. The portrait is rendered in the provincial die-cutting tradition of Phrygia, with bold relief typical of Dorylaean civic coinage.

Reverse description Zeus enthroned to the left, his body depicted in a three-quarter view, holding a thunderbolt in his extended right hand and a long sceptre in his left. The god is shown seated upon a high-backed throne in the classical Pheidian tradition commonly reproduced on provincial coinage of Asia Minor. The ethnic legend ΙΤΑΛΙΚΩ ΑΝΘΥΠΑΤΩ ΔΟΡΥΛΑΕΩΝ runs around the periphery of the coin, honoring the Roman proconsul and attributing the issue to the civic authority of Dorylaeum.
