Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Titus, as Caesar, facing right, depicted with characteristic short curly hair and a wreath of laurel leaves. The portrait is rendered in the vigorous Flavian style, with strong facial features and naturalistic modelling. A circular Latin legend runs around the periphery of the flan, partially visible due to the irregular flan edges and surface wear. The obverse field shows the characteristic patina of an extensively circulated bronze issue of the Vespasianic period.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck during Titus's tenure as co-emperor under Vespasian, this as belongs to a period when the Flavian dynasty was aggressively using coinage to consolidate legitimacy following the civil wars of 69 AD. The SC — Senatus Consulto — notation carried real political weight early in the Flavian period; it was a deliberate nod to senatorial authority from a family that had seized power through military force. By 73, Vespasian held the censorship alongside his consulship, an unusual concentration of offices that gave the dynasty direct control over the Roman citizen rolls for the first time in over a century.
