| Obverse description | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, with a globe positioned at the point of the neck truncation, a characteristic motif of his later coinage. The portrait is rendered in the robust, realistic style typical of Flavian die-cutters, capturing the emperor's aged features with pronounced brow and strong jaw. The encircling legend runs clockwise in well-spaced Latin capitals along the coin's periphery. |
