| Obverse lettering | IMP CAES DOMITIANVS AVG GERMANIC (Translation: Imperator Caesar Domitianus Augustus Germanicus. Supreme commander (Imperator), Caesar, Domitian, emperor (Augustus), conqueror of the Germans.) |
| Reverse description | The goddess Minerva depicted standing left in full figure, helmeted and clad in flowing drapery, extending her right arm forward to brandish a thunderbolt, while her left hand rests on an upright spear. A round shield is placed at her side near her feet, resting against her leg. The composition presents Minerva as a martial deity, reflecting Domitian's particular veneration of the goddess as his divine patron. The figure is rendered with confident, schematic lines typical of late first-century Roman die-cutting, with the encircling legend occupying the peripheral field. |
