Obverse description Laureate and draped bust of Domitian facing right, rendered in high relief with a bold, authoritative portrait characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The emperor's laureate wreath is rendered in fine detail, with individual leaves clearly delineated. The effigy is set within a dotted border, with the encircling legend distributed around the full periphery of the flan. The portrait displays the strong, fleshy facial features associated with Domitian's mature coinage of AD 84.
