| Beschrijving keerzijde | Victory, draped and winged, standing right upon the prow of a galley (rostrum), holding a wreath in her extended right hand and a palm branch in her left. The figure is rendered in the striding Hellenistic tradition, with drapery falling in long folds. The senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is disposed in the field to either side of the central figure, affirming the senate's role in issuing bronze coinage. The reverse composition commemorates Roman naval and military supremacy. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This as belongs to Titus's tenure as co-emperor under Vespasian, struck before his sole reign began in 79 AD. The Victoria type was politically pointed — Titus had commanded the siege of Jerusalem in 70 AD, and victory imagery on Roman bronze coinage of this decade was rarely abstract. The destruction of the Second Temple and the sack of Jerusalem underwrote a flood of triumph-themed issues, funded in part by the enormous wealth stripped from Judaea.
RIC II.1 #916 places this piece within the Vespasianic Rome mint sequence for 76 AD.
