Obverse description Laureate head of Titus facing right, rendered with fine portraiture typical of Flavian die-cutting, the wreath rendered in detailed relief with individual leaves clearly articulated. The bust is bare at the shoulder, and the emperor's facial features display a strong jaw and slightly furrowed brow characteristic of Flavian imperial portraiture. The encircling legend runs from lower left around the periphery of the flan, partially off the irregular edge of the coin.
Obverse script Latin

Reverse description Pegasus, the winged horse of Greek mythology, standing and advancing to the right with the right foreleg raised, rendered in bold relief with a well-modeled body, prominent folded wing rising above the back, and flowing mane and tail. The creature is depicted in a dynamic, prancing pose occupying the full field of the coin. The abbreviated consular legend is inscribed in the upper field above the figure.
