Beschrijving voorzijde Radiate head of Vespasian facing right, rendered in bold high relief with characteristic portraiture of the Flavian dynasty. A small globe is placed at the base of the neck truncation, a distinctive feature of Vespasianic dupondii. The effigy displays the emperor's aged features with a strong, naturalistic treatment typical of Roman imperial coinage of the period. The surrounding circular legend is incuse in Latin, bordered by a beaded inner rim.

Opschrift voorzijde IMP CAES VESPASIAN AVG COS VIII P P
(Translation: Imperator Caesar Vespasianus Augustus, Consul Octavum, Pater Patriae. Supreme commander (Imperator) Caesar Vespasian, emperor (Augustus), consul for the eighth time, father of the nation.)
Beschrijving keerzijde Victory personified as a winged, draped female figure advancing to the left, her drapery in motion around her striding form. She holds aloft in her right hand a large oval shield inscribed with the letters S P Q R (Senatus Populusque Romanus), a propagandistic reference to the authority of the Roman senate and people. The composition is set within a plain field, with the senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) flanking the figure in the left and right fields respectively. The reverse type alludes to Vespasian's military victories and the legitimacy conferred by senatorial decree.
