Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of the emperor Domitian facing right, rendered in profile with characteristic Flavian portraiture. The imperial effigy displays the radiate wreath of laurel atop the head, with facial features typical of Domitianic coinage from provincial mints. The encircling legend reads IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GER, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. The flan is slightly irregular, consistent with provincial hammered coinage of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Corinth's colonial coinage under Domitian reflects the city's unusual status as a Roman refoundation — Julius Caesar had reestablished it as Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis in 44 BC, nearly a century after Lucius Mummius had razed the Greek city to rubble in 146 BC. The COL IVL AVG abbreviation in the legend acknowledges both that Caesarian origin and the subsequent Augustan reorganization of the colony's civic charter.

Provincial bronzes of this module from Corinth circulated locally within the Peloponnese, rarely traveling far from the Isthmus.
