Reversbeschreibung Minerva, goddess of wisdom and war, depicted standing in full figure facing left, helmeted and clad in flowing robes, holding an upright spear in her right hand. The goddess is rendered in the classicising style favoured on Domitianic coinage, where Minerva served as the emperor's personal divine patron and appears with particular frequency on his silver issues. The figure occupies the central field, with the encircling Latin legend distributed around the periphery of the coin. The reverse field shows the characteristic patina and wear consistent with a circulated silver denarius of the Flavian period.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Domitian's obsessive titulature — IMP XXII, his twenty-second imperatorial acclamation — dates this piece precisely to 92 AD, the year he conducted a brutal Danubian campaign against the Sarmatians and Suebi. The imperatorial count itself was politically loaded: Domitian accumulated these acclamations aggressively, using frontier warfare to shore up legitimacy against a Senate he increasingly treated with open contempt.

By COS XVI he had long since abandoned the pretense of republican collegiality that the consulship implied. RIC II.1 #738 falls within the tightly sequenced late Domitianic issues, where die production was systematic enough that the series is now one of the better-documented of the Flavian coinage.
