| Aanvullende informatie |
Ephesus operated as a significant mint for the Flavian dynasty in the early years of Vespasian's reign, striking silver for eastern circulation where Roman denarii from Rome were slow to penetrate. The LIBERI IMP AVG VESPAS type references Vespasian's sons, Titus and Domitian — a deliberate dynastic statement issued at a moment when Vespasian was still consolidating power after the chaos of 69 AD's four emperors.
RPC II 295 is a scarce eastern issue. Ephesian silver of this period often shows subtly different fabric from Roman mint production — broader, slightly thinner flans.
