| Obverse lettering | IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERMAN P M TR P VII (Translation: Imperator Caesar Domitianus Augustus Germanicus, Pontifex Maximus, Tribunicia Potestate Septima. Supreme commander (Imperator), Caesar, Domitian, emperor (Augustus), conqueror of the Germans, high priest, holder of tribunician power for the seventh time.) |
| Reverse description | Standing figure of Minerva, goddess of wisdom and war, depicted in three-quarter view facing left, wearing a crested helmet and long flowing chiton with aegis across her chest. In her raised right hand she holds a thunderbolt, while her left arm supports an upright spear; a large round shield rests at her feet to the left. Minerva was Domitian's patron deity and features prominently across his coinage in a range of types. The reverse legend IMP XIIII COS XIIII CENS P P P arcs around the upper field within a beaded border, and the figure is rendered with fine detail characteristic of Rome Mint craftsmanship under the Flavian dynasty. |
