| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Victory depicted standing on a globe, her figure turned to the left, holding a wreath extended in her right hand and a palm branch in her left. The composition reflects standard Roman Victory iconography employed on Flavian provincial issues, symbolising imperial military success. The colonial legend is distributed around the periphery of the field, framing the central type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corinth's colonial coinage under Domitian sits in an awkward historical position: the city had been refounded by Julius Caesar in 44 BC as a Roman colony precisely because the original Greek city had been razed by Mummius in 146 BC, leaving a century-long gap in habitation. By Domitian's reign the colony was thoroughly Latin in its civic identity, which the colonial title in the inscription makes explicit. Provincial bronze of this type circulated alongside Roman imperial coinage in the Peloponnese, filling denominations Rome's central mints did not bother to supply to the eastern provinces.
