| Obverse description | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, rendered with characteristic realism and individualistic portraiture typical of Flavian coinage, displaying the emperor's strong features, prominent brow, and close-cropped hair beneath a laurel wreath. The bust is bare-necked, terminating at the truncation. The encircling legend is set within a beaded border and reads IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG in raised Latin capitals. |

The figure is rendered in the classical Hellenistic tradition, with detailed feathered wings spread upward. The reverse legend VICTORIA AVGVST arcs around the field within a beaded border, attributing the victory to the reigning emperor. |
