| Reverse description | Minerva, goddess of wisdom and war, depicted helmeted and draped, advancing to the right in a dynamic martial pose. She brandishes a spear in her raised right hand, poised to strike, while her aegis hangs down her back. The figure is rendered with the confident, vigorous style characteristic of Flavian imperial reverse types, where Minerva served as Domitian's personal divine patron. The senatorial mint mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the field, affirming the coin's authority. The surrounding legend records Domitian's titles and honors. |
