| Obverse description | Bare laureate head of Emperor Vespasian facing right, rendered in the characteristic realistic portraiture style of Flavian provincial coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's distinctive physiognomy with broad brow and strong features. A Greek imperial legend surrounds the portrait within a beaded border, reading ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙΣΑΡΙ ΣΕΒΑΣΤΩ ΟΥΕΣΠΑΣΙΑΝΩ ΚΛΑΥΔΙΟ, honoring Vespasian as Emperor Caesar Augustus and acknowledging the Claudiopolitan civic identity. |
