| Beschrijving keerzijde | Annona, the personification of the Roman grain supply, seated left on a throne, rendered in a stately, classicizing style. She holds a cornucopia in her left arm, symbolizing abundance, and extends grain ears toward a modius (grain measure) set atop a column or altar to her right. A ship's stern (prow) is visible in the upper right field, alluding to the maritime grain trade. The legend ANNONA AVG flanks the figure to left and right, while the senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the lower field. The composition is enclosed within a beaded border. |

Domitian's ANNONA AVG coinage of 84 AD belongs to the early, more politically cautious phase of his reign — before the increasingly autocratic posture of his later years hardened. The annona, Rome's grain supply administration, was a genuine political pressure point: disruptions to Egyptian and North African shipments could destabilize the city within weeks, and emperors cultivated its imagery accordingly.
RIC II.1 213 is a relatively well-documented type from the series reorganized in Carradice and Buttrey's 2007 revision, which substantially reclassified Flavian bronzes previously muddled across the older RIC II.
