| Additional information |
This issue belongs to Domitian's early reign, struck at Neapolis in Samaria — a city founded by Vespasian in 72 AD on the ruins of Mabartha, deliberately displacing the Samaritan population of old Shechem. The city's coins consistently emphasized its Flavian loyalty, and the dating formula referencing the local era anchors this piece to year 11 of the Neapolitan civic calendar.
Rosenberger 5 and Sofaer 7 are both rare in the census.
