Obverse description Laureate bust of Domitian facing right, depicted with aegis at the shoulder, rendered in bold high relief consistent with Flavian portraiture. The emperor's features are strongly modeled, presenting the characteristic physiognomy associated with Domitianic coinage of the Roman mint. The encircling Latin legend reads IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM COS XIII CENS PER P P, distributed around the full circumference of the flan. The die work displays the assured, vigorous engraving style typical of Rome Mint production during Domitian's later reign.
