Reverse description A large ceremonial seat (sella curulis or throne) rendered in a bold, schematic style, centrally positioned within the field and occupying the majority of the reverse design. The seat is depicted frontally, with the characteristic curved legs and a cushioned top, symbols of Domitian's consular and imperial authority. Above the seat, a small helmet or crested ornament is visible, alluding to military power. The circumferential legend TR POT COS VIII P P encircles the design, affirming Domitian's tribunician power, his eighth consulship, and his title as Father of the Fatherland. The plain, unadorned field emphasises the symbolic weight of the central device.
