| Beschrijving keerzijde | The winged goddess Victoria advances to the right in full stride, draped in a flowing chiton, her outstretched right hand presenting a laurel wreath and her left hand holding a palm branch resting against her shoulder. Her large, prominently rendered wings are spread behind her in a graceful composition typical of Flavian reverse iconography. The reverse legend VICTORIA AVGVSTI encircles the field, commemorating the military victories claimed under the reigning emperor Vespasian. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The quinarius denomination had largely fallen out of regular use by the Flavian period, making Domitian's 73 AD issue something of an anachronism. Struck when Domitian was Caesar under his father Vespasian, these pieces were almost certainly not intended for routine commerce — the quinarius by this point circulated more as a donative or ceremonial piece than as practical currency. The Victory type directly references military achievements being claimed by the Flavian dynasty, fresh from the Jewish War concluded just years earlier.
