(Translation: Imperator Caesar Vespasianus Augustus, Consul Tertium. Supreme commander (Imperator) Caesar Vespasian, emperor (Augustus), consul for the third time.)
Reverse description The goddess Roma seated left upon a cuirass, holding a small figure of Victory in her extended right hand and a parazonium (short military sword) in her left; military shields are arranged in the field behind her. The composition conveys themes of Roman martial triumph and divine protection of the city. The legend ROMA appears in the field, with the senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) flanking the central type, affirming senatorial oversight of the base-metal coinage.
