Obverse description Laureate bust of Emperor Domitian facing right, draped and cuirassed, rendered in bold relief characteristic of Flavian-era portraiture. The imperial effigy displays a strongly modeled profile with distinctive physiognomic features. The obverse legend encircles the bust, reading IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM COS XIII CENS PER P P, affirming Domitian's full imperial titulature including his thirteenth consulship and perpetual censorship. The die work reflects the authoritative style of the Rome mint under the Flavian dynasty.
