Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate bust of the emperor Domitian facing right, with detailed hair and laurel wreath rendered in fine relief. The effigy is depicted with a slightly draped shoulder visible at the bust truncation. A circular Greek legend runs along the outer border of the field, identifying the emperor by his imperial titles. The portrait exhibits the characteristic strong-jawed profile associated with Flavian dynastic coinage struck for the eastern provincial mints.

Aanvullende informatie

The legend ΕΤΟΥϹ ΙΔ ΥΠΑΤΟΥ ΙΖ — "year 14, consul for the 17th time" — dates this piece precisely to 95 AD, the same year Domitian executed his cousin Flavius Clemens on charges of atheism, a charge widely understood as a proxy for Christian or Jewish sympathies. The Lycian koinon continued striking in his name through the assassination in September 96, after which the Senate ordered his memory damned. Coins bearing his titulature were not systematically recalled, but damnatio memoriae examples with surviving portraits are notably less common in provincial hoards than the volume of minting would predict.
