| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate bust of Emperor Domitian facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Alexandrian coinage. The effigy displays the laureate wreath clearly atop the head, with the emperor's portrait occupying the central field. The surrounding Greek legend runs along the periphery of the flan, identifying the emperor with his full titulature. The die work reflects the competent but distinctive hand of the Alexandrian mint workshops of the Flavian period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 13 of Domitian's reign fell squarely within the period ancient sources describe as his principate's most repressive phase — Suetonius and Pliny both document the terror of his final years, with senators executed on slim pretexts and informers rewarded generously. The Alexandrian mint continued issuing large bronzes through all of it, operating on the Egyptian regnal calendar independent of events in Rome.
Domitian was assassinated in September 96 AD, making L ΙΓ one of the last complete Alexandrian years of his reign.
