<p>[QUOTE="Parthicus Maximus, post: 3787798, member: 102867"]Nice coin! A theory for the appearance of Germania Capta on coins in 85 could be that Domitian did receive the Germanicus title in 83 and that he was then also back in Rome, but that the campaign continued under the leadership of a few generals. After all, we hardly have any sources about the provinces. Personally, I do not believe it was a total fake victory, "bad" emperors such as Caligula, Lucius Verus and Commodus were also accused of their victories representing nothing. In my opinion, it is typically slander to a less senate-loving emperor. Although there may be some truth in it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
