| Obverse description | Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic style with finely detailed curling locks and a laurel wreath crowning the hair. The facial features are sharply modeled, with a prominent nose and strong jaw characteristic of late Republican die work. Long strands of hair fall behind the neck, adding depth to the portrait. The field is plain and the flan edge is irregular, consistent with hand-struck production. A linear border frames the design. |

| Reverse description | Standing figure of Victory facing right, her arm raised to crown a trophy with a wreath; the trophy, composed of captured arms including a round shield and helmet, stands at right. A small captive figure kneels at the base of the trophy in the central field. The legend ROMA appears in the exergue in Latin capitals. The scene is enclosed within a border of dots, and the composition reflects the Roman tradition of commemorating military triumph through coin imagery. |
