Domitian as Caesar COTD
« on: June 26, 2018, 06:24:22 pm »
I have been wanting one of these for quite sometime: https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-147452

Finally, I was able to obtain a specimen from the first denarius issue struck for Domitian as Caesar at Rome!

Glad you had it, possibly a double die match with mine.

Thanks everyone for the kind words! It's such a wonderful feeling to have finally acquired the first denarius struck for Domitian Caesar at Rome. To a Flavian collector this is an iconic type!

It's nice to see 2000 years later the type lives on!
