Reverse description Victory seated left upon a throne or chair, holding a laurel wreath extended in her right hand and a palm branch in her left, rendered in the classicizing style typical of Flavian reverse imagery. The figure is draped in a long flowing garment, with wings depicted behind the shoulders. The surrounding legend IMP XXI COS XVI CENS P P P is inscribed in capital Latin letters around the periphery of the flan. The composition follows the standard quinarius reverse type for Domitian, emphasizing his repeated acclamations as imperator and his position as permanent censor and father of the fatherland. The overall workmanship, while on a small irregular flan, displays confident die engraving consistent with the Rome Mint's output in AD 92.
