| Beschrijving keerzijde | Domitian on horseback advancing to the right, depicted in military attire with a raised right arm extending a branch or spear in the manner of a triumphant commander. The equestrian figure is rendered in high relief, the horse shown at full gallop with forelegs raised. The encircling legend CAESAR DOMITIAN COS DES II is distributed around the upper and outer periphery, with the senatorial authority mark S C flanking the lower field. The reverse carries a rich golden-yellow patina overlying the bronze fabric, consistent with the coin's orichalcum alloy composition. |

Struck in 72 AD under Vespasian, this sestertius names Domitian as Caesar with the designation COS DES II — consul designate for the second time — a title granted before he held any real command. Vespasian kept both sons visible on the coinage as a deliberate dynastic signal, but Domitian's role was largely ceremonial; Titus held actual imperium and commanded armies. The pairing on bronze coinage was political choreography, not a reflection of shared power.
