| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Titus facing right, rendered in the provincial hammered style typical of Herodian coinage. The effigy displays the characteristic wreath of laurel atop the head, with drapery visible at the truncation of the shoulder. A circular Greek legend surrounds the portrait, reading ΑΥΤΟΚΡ ΤΙΤΟC ΚΑΙCΑΡ CΕΒΑC, identifying the emperor as Titus Caesar Augustus. The flan is notably thick and irregular at the edges, consistent with the hand-struck bronze coinage of this region and period. |

| Reverse description | Standing figure of Nike (Victory) advancing left, wearing a long chiton, with wings spread, holding a wreath extended in her right hand and a palm branch in her left. A star appears in the upper right field of the reverse. The Greek legend ΕΤΟ ΚS ΒΑ ΑΓΡΙ ΠΠΑ is distributed across the field to the right of the central figure, recording regnal Year 26 of King Agrippa. The overall composition is characteristic of Agrippa II's bronze issues struck in honor of the Flavian emperors. |
