| Obverse description | Laureate head of Emperor Domitian facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Alexandrian coinage. The portrait displays the emperor's characteristic features with the laurel wreath denoting imperial and divine status. A Greek legend surrounds the effigy reading ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙΣΑΡ ΔΟΜΙΤΙΑΝΟΣ ΣΕΒ ΓΕΡΜ, identifying the ruler as Emperor Caesar Domitian Augustus Germanicus. The flan is irregularly shaped and the surfaces show the rough, somewhat coarse fabric typical of Alexandrian bronze issues of this period. |
