| Reverse description | A dynamic equestrian figure, representing Domitian as princeps iuventutis (prince of youth), shown riding a horse at full gallop to the right. The rider raises his right arm in a gesture of salutation or command while holding what appears to be a spear or staff, with a flowing military cloak (paludamentum) billowing behind him. The horse is depicted in energetic motion with legs fully extended. The reverse legend PRINCEPS IVVENTVTIS is positioned in the field, affirming Domitian's honorific title as leader of the youth, a traditional designation for imperial heirs. |
