| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Claudius facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Judaean mint issues. The imperial effigy displays a laurel wreath upon the head, with drapery visible at the shoulder. The surrounding Latin legend reads partially around the periphery of the flan, though the irregular striking has caused portions of the inscription to fall off the flan. The portrait is boldly modeled, conveying imperial authority within the local artistic tradition of Caesarea Paneas. |

| Reverse description | A prominent anchor displayed upright at center, symbolizing naval power and prosperity, enclosed within a laurel wreath that frames the entire reverse field. The wreath is finely rendered with individual leaves visible, tied at the base. The anchor, a recurring civic emblem on issues of Caesarea Paneas, occupies the full height of the wreath interior. No legend appears on the reverse. The overall composition is centered and bold, characteristic of provincial bronze coinage from the region under Claudius. |
