| Obverse description | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, with naturalistic portraiture characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The emperor is depicted with closely cropped hair beneath the laurel wreath, whose ties fall at the nape of the neck. The bust is bare, presenting the emperor's mature, broad-featured physiognomy. A continuous Latin legend surrounds the effigy along the periphery of the flan. |
