| Obverse description | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, depicted with a realistic, portraitlike rendering characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The emperor's bust is draped, with finely detailed hair rendered in tight, textured curls across the crown and nape. The facial features are bold and naturalistic, emphasizing the strong jaw and prominent brow typical of Vespasian's numismatic portrait type. The encircling legend reads IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG COS VIIII, running clockwise around the obverse field. |
