Reverse description Standing figure of Minerva, goddess of wisdom and war, depicted in three-quarter stance advancing to the right, wearing a crested helmet and full military attire. She raises a spear or thunderbolt in her right hand in a striking pose, while her left arm supports a large round shield resting on the ground beside her. At her feet to the lower right is a small owl, Minerva's sacred attribute. The reverse legend encircles the field, recording Domitian's pontifical and tribunician titles, and the type reflects Domitian's well-documented devotion to Minerva as his personal patron deity.
