She holds a wreath in her extended right hand and a palm branch in her left, symbolizing military triumph. The colonial legend COL IVL FLAV AVG CORINT is disposed around the figure in the field, referencing the Julio-Claudian and Flavian foundation of the Roman colony at Corinth.

Aanvullende informatie

Corinth's colonial coinage under Domitian occupies an awkward historiographical space — the emperor's systematic damnatio memoriae after his assassination in 96 AD meant his name was officially struck from public record across the empire, yet provincial bronzes like this one survived in circulation precisely because Rome rarely bothered to suppress low-value colonial issues. The colony's full title, invoking both Julian and Flavian dynastic lineage, reflects the refoundation of Corinth by Julius Caesar in 44 BC and the city's careful habit of advertising that pedigree on every issue.
