| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, rendered with characteristic realism: broad forehead, prominent aquiline nose, and strong jaw, consistent with the veristic portrait tradition of Flavian imperial coinage. The bust is draped at the shoulder, with finely engraved curling hair beneath the laurel wreath. The portrait is positioned centrally within the flan, surrounded by a beaded border. The imperial titulature legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the obverse field. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Victory personified, draped and advancing to the left, her figure rendered in dynamic motion. In her extended right hand she proffers a wreath, symbolising triumph, while her raised left hand carries a palm branch resting over her left shoulder, a traditional attribute of victory. The figure occupies the central reverse field, with the dedicatory legend disposed around the periphery. The composition reflects standard Flavian reverse iconography celebrating the Augustan peace following the Jewish War. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck at Ephesus in 71 AD, this issue belongs to a brief but prolific eastern mint phase that Vespasian authorized to pay troops still stationed in the region following the Jewish War. The Ephesus mint operated for only a few years under the Flavians before production consolidated back to Rome, making provincial-mint silver of this period a distinct subset within the reign.
RIC II.1 1432 is an eastern issue, and the fabric tends to differ subtly from Roman-struck denarii of the same year — flans are often slightly broader and thinner, a consequence of different workshop practices at Ephesus.
