| Obverse description | Bare-headed, laureate bust of Domitian facing right, with short curly hair and ribbon ties visible at the nape of the neck, rendered in high relief characteristic of Flavian portraiture. The effigy displays a youthful, idealized likeness befitting Domitian's status as Caesar and son of the reigning Augustus Vespasian. The encircling legend runs from lower left to upper right around the periphery of the flan. The coin is struck on a broad, well-centred flan with a slightly irregular edge typical of hand-hammered Roman silver coinage of the period. |
