Stumpf 372

Stumpf (p. 212 n. 22) gives the coin to the Koinon of Bithynia, but observes that the design suggests an attribution to Heraclea (a similar design occurs earlier at Heraclea: RPC I, 2088). Heracles types also occur at Cius/Prusias ad Mare (RPC I, 2022-5).

The rev. is copied from the similar Victory type found on 'restored' coins of Divus Augustus, perhaps minted in Thrace (RPC II, 512). The style of the obv. seems very close to RPC II, 710.

The reading ΔΙΟΣ ΛΙ is clear and its completion seems likely, as an altar with the same inscription is found on coins of Nicaea under Nero (RPC I, 2053, 2055). This, in turn, suggests the attribution to Nicaea for this coin of Domitian; as the portrait style of 709 seems very close to that found on this coin, they should both perhaps beattributed to Nicaea.

In addition, the rev. design seems similar inconcept to RPC II, 685-6. But at the moment there is insufficient evidence for thisattribution. The type is a modified translation of the design of virtuti augusti used at Rome from AD 84 (see Bosch pp. 186-7).
