Unpublished Domitian as Caesar left portrait dupondius

Hello everyone,

the left portrait of Domitian as Caesar in its first issue under Vespasian was known so far only with the FELICITAS reverse (RIC 659 R).

I've been lucky to spot this new example, coupled with the Caesar on horseback reverse.

The coin should become V 662A in the RIC next update.

As the proud owner I'm glad to share it.

Within the occasion I'm adding to the gallery also my RIC 659 which is from different obverse die.

Kind regards

Alberto
