| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Domitian facing right, draped at the shoulder, rendered in high relief with characteristic Flavian portraiture. The emperor's effigy displays a strong profile with prominent features typical of his numismatic iconography. The encircling legend runs from the lower left clockwise around the full circumference of the coin within a beaded border. The die engraving reflects the confident, vigorous style of the Rome Mint workshops under the Flavian dynasty. |
