Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Fides Publica (Public Faith) stands facing left in full figure, draped in a long stola, her right hand extended and holding an offering — possibly grain ears or a patera — and her left hand bearing a basket or bundle of grain stalks, emblematic of her role as guarantor of Roman civic and religious trust. The legend FIDEI PVBLICAE is distributed around the upper and left periphery, while the senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is prominently placed in the lower field flanking the figure on either side. The design is contained within a beaded border and exhibits the characteristic broad, flat flan of Flavian-era aes coinage struck at the Rome Mint.

Aanvullende informatie

Domitian's invocation of Fides Publica on this issue belongs to a deliberate propaganda campaign following his consolidation of power after 81 AD. The appeal to public faith and fidelity was pointed — Domitian's relationship with the Senate was openly adversarial, and these civic virtue types circulated as a kind of institutional reassurance that the emperor's commitments to Rome's traditional values held. RIC II.1 #368 falls within his third consulship dating, a period of intensive mint activity that also saw systematic reforms to silver fineness.
