Winged thunderbolt on draped table
18mm, 2.96g
RIC II, 23a (C)
RIC describes this series on p.114 as "It was perhaps the eruption of
Vesuvius that prompted the issue of the series of "supplicatio"
coins showing the exhibition of the emblems of the gods on "pulvinari"
in their temples. Thus, the thunderbolt on throne for Jupiter, the
corn-ears on throne for Ceres, the shield on throne (used by Domitian) for
Minerva, the dolphin and anchor may represent Neptune and the dolphin and
tripod for Apollo. The wreath on curule chair is uncertain".
