| Obverse description | Laureate head of Domitian facing right, with aegis at the neck, rendered in high relief in the imperial portrait tradition. The emperor's effigy displays strong, idealized features characteristic of Flavian court portraiture. The encircling legend reads IMP CAES DIVI VESP F DOMIT AVG GERM COS X, distributed around the obverse field. The coin surface shows the typical irregular flan and somewhat rough texture associated with late first-century Roman bronze coinage. The portrait is positioned centrally, occupying the majority of the obverse field. |
