Beschrijving voorzijde A ship's rudder resting diagonally atop a globe occupies the central field, rendered in crisp relief characteristic of Flavian mint work. The rudder and globe together serve as emblems of imperial dominion over land and sea. The encircling Latin legend runs around the periphery within a dotted border, naming the emperor in the nominative. The composition is spare and symbolic, filling the small flan with confident, bold engraving. No portraiture appears on this issue, which is typical of Vespasianic quadrantes.

Opschrift voorzijde IMP VESPASIAN AVG
(Translation: Supreme commander Vespasian, emperor.)
Beschrijving keerzijde A winged caduceus stands upright in the center of the field, its staff flanked by intertwined serpents and surmounted by wings, symbolizing peace, commerce, and divine favor. The caduceus is rendered with fine detail despite the small module of the flan. The encircling Latin legend is distributed around the periphery within a dotted border, recording Vespasian's tribunician and consular honors along with the senatorial authorization S C. The field is otherwise plain, giving prominence to the central device. The style is consistent with the Rome mint output of AD 76.
