Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Emperor Domitian facing right, with finely rendered curly hair beneath the laurel wreath and ribbon ties visible at the nape of the neck; the bust is bare and truncated at the shoulder. The portrait is executed in the high-relief style characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage, conveying authority and idealized imperial dignity. The encircling legend reads DOMITIANVS AVGVSTVS, distributed around the periphery of the flan within a beaded border. The engraving displays exceptional artistry, with carefully delineated facial features including a prominent nose, strong jaw, and individualized physiognomy consistent with known portraits of Domitian.

(Translation: Domitianus Augustus. Domitian, emperor (Augustus).)
Beschrijving keerzijde Domitian standing in a triumphal quadriga advancing to the left, holding a laurel branch in his right hand and an eagle-tipped sceptre in his left, as befitting a triumphator. The car of the chariot is decorated with a relief of Victory crowning a trophy, referencing Domitian's Germanic campaigns. The four horses are depicted in dynamic forward motion. The reverse legend GERMANICVS COS XV appears in the field, identifying Domitian as conqueror of the Germans and consul for the fifteenth time, providing a precise chronological anchor for the issue.
