| Obverse description | Diademed and draped female bust facing right, rendered with a small head and hair arranged in a tight knot above the nape of the neck. The figure is identified as Bonus Eventus personified, depicted with restrained classical style typical of the civil war period coinage of AD 68–69. The legend BONI EVENT arcs around the field in incuse Latin letters. The portrait displays fine engraving consistent with the refined die-cutting of issues attributed to the mint of Rome during the Year of the Four Emperors. |

| Reverse description | The personification of Roma stands facing right, clad in military dress, holding a Victoriola — a small figure of Victory — in her extended right hand, while an eagle-tipped sceptre rests transversely over her left shoulder. The composition conveys themes of imperial renewal and Roman resilience, reflecting the political turmoil and aspirations of the civil war coinage of AD 68–69. The reverse legend ROMA RENASCES arcs prominently around the field in crisp Latin capitals. The die workmanship is characteristic of official Roman mint production of the period. |
