| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Divus Vespasianus facing right, depicted with draped shoulder, the portrait rendered in the naturalistic style characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The circumferential legend reads DIVVS AVGVSTVS VESPASIANVS, honoring the deified emperor. The effigy displays the characteristic broad facial features and close-cropped hair associated with Vespasian's posthumous portrait type. The coin was struck under Titus as a memorial issue commemorating his deified father. |
