| Obverse description | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, rendered in high relief with characteristically naturalistic portraiture typical of early Flavian coinage. The emperor's features display the robust, mature visage well-documented on his coinage, with short hair beneath the laurel wreath. A beaded border frames the design. The encircling legend reads IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG in Latin capitals, identifying him as Imperator Caesar Vespasianus Augustus. |
