Reverse description A tripod-lebes displayed in three-quarter view occupies the central field, its legs rendered with careful detail and decorative fillets hanging from the bowl. A dolphin is positioned above the tripod, arching across the upper field — a symbol associated with Apollo and augural imagery. The reverse type alludes to Domitian's religious and political authority, likely referencing the Ludi Saeculares or Apolline iconography. The surrounding legend is divided on either side of the central device and reads continuously around the periphery of the flan.
