Beschrijving keerzijde Minerva, goddess of wisdom and warfare, depicted standing in full figure facing left, helmeted and clad in a long chiton with aegis, holding an upright spear in her right hand. The figure occupies the central field of the flan with the circumferential legend distributed around the periphery. A small mint mark appears in the lower field. The composition reflects the standard Domitianic reverse type associated with Minerva, the emperor's favored deity, rendered with the crisp but somewhat schematic style typical of the Rome mint in the final years of his reign.

Aanvullende informatie

IMP XXII and COS XVII place this issue in the final year of Domitian's reign, 95–96 AD, just before his assassination on 18 September 96. By this point his relationship with the Senate had deteriorated so completely that they voted a formal damnatio memoriae within hours of his death — coins bearing his portrait were recalled, defaced, or melted across the empire, which is the primary reason late-reign Domitianic denarii survive in comparatively modest numbers.
