Reverse description Minerva, goddess of wisdom and war, stands facing left in the field, helmeted and draped in a long chiton and aegis, raising a thunderbolt in her extended right hand and resting her left hand on a grounded spear or shield at her side. The figure is rendered in the static, columnar style typical of Domitianic reverse types, standing on a low ground line. The surrounding legend IMP XXI COS XIIII CENS P P P is disposed around the circumference of the coin. Minerva was Domitian's tutelary deity and appears frequently on his coinage, reflecting his personal religious devotion to her.
