Additional information

This as belongs to a well-documented series struck under Vespasian in the names of his sons, part of a deliberate dynastic coinage program that projected Flavian succession well before either Titus or Domitian held the throne. The Victory type was not incidental — it tied directly to the Judean triumph of 71 AD, which both Vespasian and Titus had celebrated jointly, an honor almost without precedent for a living heir.

RIC II.1 1037 is one of several closely related Victory issues from this period, and die linkages across the series suggest concentrated production at Rome in the run-up to Titus's formal designation as co-emperor in 79 AD.
