| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Domitian facing right, draped at the shoulder, portrayed with characteristic Flavian physiognomy. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine detail to the laurel wreath and facial features. The encircling Latin legend occupies the full periphery of the flan, naming the emperor with his full imperial titulature. The portrait exemplifies the official court style of the Roman Imperial mint under the Flavian dynasty. |
