| Obverse description | Radiate bust of Domitian facing right, depicted with a short beard and wearing the characteristic radiate crown of the dupondius denomination, the rays clearly visible above the head. The emperor's neck and shoulders are rendered with fine drapery detail, the portrait displaying the characteristic Flavian physiognomy. The encircling legend reads IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM COS XIIII CENS PER P P, distributed around the full circumference of the flan in crisp, well-spaced Latin capitals. The portrait is executed in the high-relief style typical of Domitianic bronze coinage struck at the Rome mint. |
