Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate bust of Domitian facing right, draped and wearing an aegis across the chest, rendered in high relief with characteristic Flavian portraiture. The emperor's effigy displays a laurel wreath, with curling hair visible at the temple and nape. The encircling Latin legend runs along the full periphery of the flan, reading clockwise from below. The broad, slightly irregular flan is typical of hammered bronze production of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Domitian's IOVI CONSERVATORI coinage reflects his unusually intense personal identification with Jupiter — he claimed the god had sheltered him during the Capitoline crisis of 69 AD, when Vespasian's enemies stormed the temple and Domitian escaped disguised as a worshipper of Isis. That claimed divine debt shaped his religious policy throughout his reign. RIC II.1 489 belongs to the heavy bronze recoinage of 85–86, when Domitian restored aes coinage to Neronian weight standards after decades of debasement under his father and brother.
