| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate head of Domitian facing right, depicted with a robust portrait in the naturalistic style characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The emperor is shown with his characteristic physiognomy, the laurel wreath denoting imperial and military authority. The encircling legend reads IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM COS XIII CENS PER P P, distributed around the bust in incuse Latin capitals. The portrait is rendered with strong relief and detailed facial modeling consistent with the die-cutting style of the Rome Mint under Domitian. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Domitian's 87 AD bronze issues were produced during a period of deliberate monetary reform — he had restored the silver denarius to Neronian standards of fineness the previous year, and the MONETA AVGVSTI reverse type on this as is widely read as an explicit assertion of that policy, advertising the mint's authority and the integrity of the coinage rather than simply personifying it. The reform was later reversed under financial pressure from his Danubian campaigns.
