| Obverse description | Bare-shouldered, laureate bust of Vespasian facing right, rendered with characteristic realism and physiognomic detail typical of Flavian portraiture; a small globe is depicted at the truncation of the neck. The emperor's features — including his broad, fleshy face and strong jaw — are boldly modelled in high relief. The encircling legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the flan. |

| Reverse description | Two imperial princes, Titus (left) and Domitian (right), stand facing one another in full military dress, each clad in cuirass and paludamentum. Both figures hold a long spear in their outer hand and a parazonium (military dagger) in their inner hand, conveying dynastic martial authority. The senatorial mark of value S C (Senatus Consultum) is placed in the left and right fields respectively, flanking the two standing figures. The reverse legend naming both princes runs around the entire circumference of the coin. |
