Domitian RIC II 0590
|
Domitian 81-96 A.D. AR Quinarius Rome Mint 88, 1 Jan.-13 Sept A.D. (1.48g, 15.5mm, 6h). Obv: IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM PM TRP VII, laureate head right. Rev: IMP XIIII COS XIIII CENS PPP, Victory standing left with wreath and palm. RIC 590.
Despite the fact the updated RIC lists this, as other, quinarii as common, I see very few in trade. This one is not overly worn, is well centered, but has wonderful toning. I’m amazed at the length of legend the engravers were able to get on such a small coin.
