Commentary


Poids léger. Ce type avec la tête radiée n’est pas un dupondius, mais un as. Au droit comme sur le denier de son grand-oncle, Auguste est surmonté d’une étoile. Il est possible que l’aigle du revers ait appartenu à une statue qui se trouvait dans le temple de Jupiter Capitolin. L’aigle est posé sur un globe orné d’une double croisette évidée cantonnée de quatre globules. Intéressante restitution de Domitien.

Historical background


DIVI consecration of DOMITIANUS

(81-82)

Domitian made a major issue of restitutions early in his reign for these predecessors as Titus had already done. We have coins for Augustus, Agrippa, Tiberius, Drusus, Germanicus and Claudius. These restitutions concern only the Julio-Claudian family and are limited to bronze coinage, in particular, the ace, except for a dupondius for Augustus.
