| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Domitian facing right, depicted with a draped shoulder, rendered in the robust portraiture style characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The effigy displays a strong profile with clearly defined facial features and a laurel wreath encircling the head. The encircling Latin legend reads CAESAR AVG F DOMITIANVS COS V, arranged around the bust within a beaded border. The portrait conveys the iconographic authority befitting Domitian's status as Caesar and son of the reigning emperor Vespasian. |
