Obverse description Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, rendered in the naturalistic portrait style characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage, with aged facial features and short hair beneath the wreath. The circumferential Latin legend reads CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG, distributed around the portrait. The flan is irregular and slightly broader than the die, typical of hand-struck Roman silver of this period. The portrait displays strong relief, with confident engraving conveying the emperor's mature, authoritative countenance.

Obverse lettering CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG
(Translation: Caesar Vespasianus, Augustus. Caesar Vespasian, emperor (Augustus).)
