| Obverse description | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, rendered in the naturalistic portraiture style characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The emperor's effigy displays closely cropped hair with a wreath of laurel leaves, his mature features rendered with individualistic realism. The encircling legend runs along the periphery of the flan. The portrait is executed with strong, bold relief typical of early Flavian gold coinage struck at Rome. |
