| Beschrijving keerzijde | Domitian standing right, clasping hands in a dextrarum iunctio with a military officer standing left, the gesture performed over a low altar symbolizing the renewal of the military oath. Three soldiers are arrayed behind the group: one bearing a legionary aquila (eagle standard), one holding a vexillum or signum, and one distinguished by an animal-skin headdress, likely an aquilifer. The composition is a bold historical type celebrating Domitian's military authority and his bond with the legions. The senatorial mark of value S C appears in the field, authorizing the bronze issue. |

Domitian's sestertii from 86 AD fall within the period when he held the title of Censor Perpetuus, assumed in 85, giving him unprecedented peacetime control over public morality and senatorial membership — a claim no emperor before him had made permanent. The Senate's nominal authorization encoded in the S C carried particular irony under a ruler who treated that body with open contempt and was eventually subject to damnatio memoriae after his assassination in 96 AD.
RIC II.1 #473 belongs to the revised Carradice-based reclassification, which substantially reorganized earlier RIC II attributions for the Flavians.
