| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Vespasian facing right, with strongly modelled facial features characteristic of Flavian portraiture, including a broad forehead and pronounced jaw. The emperor is depicted with short hair beneath the laurel wreath, a traditional symbol of imperial authority. The surrounding legend reads IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG, distributed around the coin's circumference. The portrait is rendered in high relief typical of hammered silver coinage of the period, with the flan displaying the characteristic irregular edge of hand-struck Roman quinarii. |
