| Obverse description | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, rendered in high relief with naturalistic portrait features characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic strong jaw, prominent brow, and short-cropped hair beneath a radiate laurel wreath. The encircling legend runs along the coin's periphery in incuse Latin capitals. The portrait exhibits the bold, veristic style typical of Vespasianic denarii struck in the early years of his reign. |
