Reverse description Minerva, helmeted and draped, stands facing left in a martial pose, raising a thunderbolt in her right hand and holding an upright spear in her left; a round shield rests against her left side at her feet. The goddess is rendered in the standard Flavian reverse type associated with Domitian's extensive coinage, reflecting his personal devotion to Minerva as his divine patron. The figure is set within a plain field with a dotted border, the reverse legend arranged around the periphery. The die work displays competent execution typical of the Rome mint output of AD 84.
