| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Victory stands facing left in the reverse field, her winged figure elegantly posed as she holds a palm branch in her left hand. With her right hand she inscribes or dedicates a large rounded shield set upon a trophy to the left, a composition evoking Roman military triumph. The senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) flanks the central type in the lower field, affirming the Senate's role in issuing bronze coinage. The legend VICTORIAE AVGVSTI encircles the design, proclaiming the victory of the emperor. The overall reverse composition is characteristic of Domitianic commemorative types celebrating the Dacian and Germanic campaigns. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Domitian's VICTORIAE AVGVSTI coinage of 86 AD commemorated his Dacian campaigns, wars he prosecuted personally and which he considered among his defining military achievements — whatever later senatorial historians chose to say about them. The campaigns ended not in conquest but in a negotiated settlement with Decebalus that Trajan would later cite as humiliating, yet Domitian celebrated it with a triumph regardless.
RIC II.1 498 is a reasonably well-documented type, though bronze sestertii and asses from Domitian's reign suffer disproportionate attrition from their heavy use in daily commerce throughout the empire's western provinces.
