Beschrijving voorzijde Diademed and bearded bust of the Genius Populi Romani facing right, rendered in the classical Roman style with curling hair and full beard. A sceptre rises vertically behind the bust, serving as an attribute of divine or semi-divine personification. The legend GENIVS P R is distributed around the periphery of the flan. The bust fills the field in a bold, high-relief presentation typical of late Julio-Claudian and Year of the Four Emperors coinage. The irregular flan edges are characteristic of hand-hammered production of the period.

Opschrift voorzijde GENIVS P R
(Translation: Genius Populi Romani. Genius of the Roman people.)
Beschrijving keerzijde The abbreviated senatorial legend S P Q R is inscribed centrally within a prominent oak-wreath (corona civica), the leaves and acorns of which are rendered in detailed relief encircling the entire field. The oak-wreath carries strong Augustan symbolic resonance, evoking the civic crown awarded for saving the lives of Roman citizens. No additional figural imagery appears; the design relies entirely on the authority of the legend and the symbolic weight of the wreath. The hammered flan shows characteristic surface irregularities and edge scalloping consistent with the civil war coinage of AD 68–69.
