Reverse description An eagle with wings fully spread stands facing on a low garlanded base or altar, its head turned to the right. The bird clutches a thunderbolt in its talons, a powerful Jovian emblem associated with imperial authority and divine sanction. The composition is bold and centred, occupying the majority of the reverse field. The reverse legend, placed above in the upper field, records Vespasian's seventh consulship, serving as a precise dating element for this issue. The style is consistent with the output of the Rome mint during the Flavian period.
