RIC 787 Domitian
|
AR Denarius, 3.26g
Rome mint, 95-96 AD
Obv: IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM P M TR P XV; Head of Domitian, laureate, bearded, r.
Rev: IMP XXII COS XVII CENS P P P; Minerva adv r., with spear and shield (M1)
RIC 787 (C2). BMC 230. RSC 292. BNC 206.
Domitian did not take the consulship in 96, so this denarius is dated by TR P XV between mid September 95 and mid September 96. No new imperial acclamations are recorded for the time period either, he remains IMP XXII throughout this massive issue.
A neat and fine portrait in good metal.
