| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare laureate head of Emperor Vitellius facing left, rendered in a naturalistic, somewhat fleshy style characteristic of Julio-Claudian portraiture. A small globe appears at the point of the neck truncation, symbolizing dominion over the world. The portrait displays the emperor's distinctive heavy features with the laurel wreath rendered in fine detail. The encircling Latin legend runs along the outer border of the coin field. The flan exhibits the slightly irregular contour typical of hand-struck aurei of the Year of the Four Emperors. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Victoria (Victory) depicted as a draped, winged female figure advancing to the left, holding in her outstretched right hand a large oval shield inscribed with the letters S P Q R (Senatus Populusque Romanus — the Senate and People of Rome). The figure is rendered in the classical Roman allegorical tradition, conveying the martial authority and legitimacy of Vitellius's short reign. The reverse legend appears in the field surrounding the central motif. The composition reflects standard Flavian-era iconographic conventions for Victory types on gold coinage. |
