| Beschrijving keerzijde | A draped curule chair (sella curulis) rendered frontally in the centre of the field, its distinctive curved legs and cushioned seat clearly articulated. Above the chair rises a semicircular canopy or frame adorned with three upward-pointing crescent or thunderbolt devices, a type associated with Domitian's early coinage of AD 81. The reverse legend encircles the design, recording Domitian's tribunician power, consulship, designation for a further consulship, and the title Pater Patriae. The type references the regalia of imperial office and divine favour. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck in 81 AD, the year Domitian succeeded his brother Titus following the latter's death from fever in September. The transition was immediate and uncontested — Domitian had long chafed under both Vespasian and Titus, and ancient sources suggest he was present at Titus's deathbed under less than brotherly circumstances, though nothing was ever proven. This issue, bearing the designation COS VII DES VIII, places it precisely within the first months of his sole reign, before the consulships accumulated into the double digits that mark his later coinage.
