Domitian. Denarius; Domitian; 81-96 AD, Rome, Sept. 92 AD, Denarius, 2.98g. RIC-736 (R2). Obv: TR P XI. Rx: IMP XXII COS XVI CENS P P P Minerva fighting r. on capital of rostral column, owl before her. Part of a very rare issue, not in the standard catalogues before the second edition of RIC (2007), apparently proving that news of Domitian's 22nd imperatorial acclamation reached Rome shortly before the emperor became TR P XII on 14 September 92. Before the publication of this issue of denarii, the advance of Domitian's IMP XXI to IMP XXII had appeared to exactly coincide with the beginning of his new tribunician year on 14 September 92.Some iridescence.
