| Obverse lettering | IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG (Translation: Supreme commander Caesar Vespasian, emperor.) |
| Reverse description | The personification of Aeternitas (Eternity) depicted as a veiled female figure dressed in a long tunic (stola), standing left before a low garlanded altar. She extends both hands to hold the radiate head of Sol (the Sun) and the crescent head of Luna (the Moon), symbolising the eternal cyclical passage of time under imperial auspices. The composition is carefully balanced within the coin's field, with the legend AETERNITAS inscribed in the exergual area or surrounding field in crisp Roman capitals. |
