| Obverse description | Laureate head of Domitian facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of the Pergamene conventus. The emperor's effigy displays a wreath of laurel leaves crowning the head, with visible drapery at the shoulder. The encircling Greek legend names the emperor with his full titulature. The portrait exhibits the characteristic broad facial features and strong jaw associated with Flavian imperial iconography. |

| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, stands facing left in a dynamic striding pose, her wings partially spread. In her extended right hand she holds a wreath offered forward, while her left arm cradles a tall palm frond, both attributes being canonical symbols of victory in Greco-Roman provincial coinage. The figure is rendered in a compact, energetic style characteristic of Lydian civic bronzes of the Flavian period. The ethnic legend of the Thyatirans is distributed in the field around the type. |
