| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate bust of Domitian facing right, depicted with curly hair and draped shoulders, rendered in the conventional Flavian portrait style. The effigy occupies the central field with the legend arrayed around the periphery. The inscription CAESAR AVG F DOMITIANVS COS IIII runs clockwise around the bust, identifying the subject as Caesar, son of Augustus, Domitian, in his fourth consulship. The portrait exhibits characteristic high relief and bold facial features typical of Roman Imperial bronze coinage struck at the Rome Mint under Vespasian. |

This as was struck under Domitian as Caesar, during the reign of his father Vespasian — a period when the Flavian dynasty was still consolidating its legitimacy after the civil wars of 69 AD. The AEQVITAS AVGVST reverse was a deliberate messaging choice: Vespasian leaned heavily on themes of equity and fair dealing in coinage to distance the new regime from the excesses associated with Nero. Domitian's own later reign, of course, would attract the very accusations of tyranny this iconography was meant to preempt.
