| Beschrijving keerzijde | Fortuna, the goddess of fortune, is depicted standing left in long draped robes, her weight shifted gracefully onto her left leg. In her right hand she holds a rudder resting on a globe, symbolising the guidance of destiny, while her left arm cradles a large cornucopiae, representing abundance. The senatorial mark of authority, S C (Senatus Consulto), is inscribed in the field to either side of the goddess, indicating this bronze issue was struck by authority of the Roman Senate. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Domitian's FORTVNAE AVGVSTI bronzes of 87 AD were struck during a period of deliberate religious and dynastic propaganda — the emperor had recently declared himself perpetual censor and was systematically elevating his own divine status, with Fortuna Augusta serving as a useful vehicle for associating imperial fortune with personal, almost sacral, authority. The Senate's S C mark here is largely nominal; by this point Domitian's control over the mint was effectively absolute, the senatorial formula a retained formality rather than genuine oversight.
