Beschrijving voorzijde Bare-headed bust of Drusus Caesar facing left, rendered in moderately high relief with naturalistic portraiture typical of Julio-Claudian coinage. The effigy shows Drusus with short, wavy hair rendered in fine strands across the crown of the head, a strong jaw, and a draped left shoulder. The encircling Latin legend reads DRVSVS CAESAR TI AVG F DIVI AVG N, identifying him as son of the emperor Tiberius and grandson of the deified Augustus. This is a restitution issue struck under Domitian, reproducing the original As type of Drusus Caesar from the Tiberian period.

Aanvullende informatie

This is a "restitution" issue — a coin struck not under Drusus but in his memory, nearly fifty years after his death in 23 AD. Titus issued these pieces, restoring honors to figures from the Julio-Claudian dynasty as a deliberate act of dynastic legitimacy-building for the new Flavian house. Drusus, son of Tiberius and once the presumed heir to the principate, died under circumstances suspicious enough that Sejanus was later accused of poisoning him — an accusation made only after Sejanus himself fell from power in 31 AD.
