| Reverse description | A eagle standing facing, with wings spread and head turned to the left, perched on a thunderbolt resting atop a wreath. The bird is rendered with detailed feathering across the wings and breast, in the authoritative Flavian engraving style. This Jupiter's eagle motif was a hallmark of Domitianic coinage and carries strong symbolism of imperial power and divine favour. The surrounding legend P M TR POT IIII IMP VIII COS XI P P encircles the type, recording Domitian's accumulated titulature as of AD 85. The field is plain, focusing full attention on the central device. |
