Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Domitian facing left, with finely rendered hair and a laurel wreath encircling the crown. The portrait displays the characteristic Flavian dynastic style, with a strong jaw and pronounced features. The surrounding legend, incuse in Latin characters, reads CAESAR AVG F DOMITIANVS COS VI, distributed around the periphery of the flan. The coin exhibits the irregular, slightly uneven flan typical of hammered silver coinage of the Flavian period.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in 79 AD while Domitian was still Caesar under his brother Titus, this issue belongs to the brief window between Vespasian's death in June and Domitian's formal position settling under the new reign. The PRINCEPS IVVENTVTIS title was a deliberate Flavian political tool — it signaled dynastic succession without granting co-emperor status, a distinction Domitian reportedly resented bitterly throughout Titus's reign.

RIC II.1 1088 is among the scarcer Domitianic Caesar types, minted for less than two years before Titus's death in September 81 elevated Domitian to Augustus.
