| Obverse lettering | IMP T CAES VESP AVG P M TR P P P COS VIII (Translation: Imperator Titus Caesar Vespasianus Augustus, Pontifex Maximus, Tribunicia Potestate, Pater Patriae, Consul Octavum. Supreme commander (Imperator) Titus Caesar Vespasian, emperor (Augustus), high priest, holder of tribunician power, father of the nation, consul for the eighth time.) |
| Reverse description | A tall palm tree dominates the center of the field, serving as the principal symbol of the conquered province of Judaea. To the right of the palm stands a Jewish male captive, rendered upright and facing left. To the left, a mourning female figure — personifying Judaea — is seated upon a pile of arms in an attitude of dejection, her head bowed. The large senatorial authority marks S and C flank the central group on either side. The composition closely follows the celebrated Judaea Capta iconography first introduced under Vespasian and continued by Titus. |
