Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Titus facing left, rendered with characteristic Flavian portraiture featuring strong facial features and a wreath of laurel leaves about the brow. The imperial effigy is set within a beaded border, with the surrounding legend disposed along the periphery of the field. The portrait style is consistent with the official Rome mint production of AD 79, conveying both the authority and the divine associations of the newly acclaimed emperor.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in 79 AD, the year Titus became sole emperor following Vespasian's death — and the same year Vesuvius buried Pompeii and Herculaneum. The VICTORIA AVGVST legend on this issue almost certainly references the Flavian triumph over Judaea concluded years earlier, a victory Titus had personally commanded at Jerusalem in 70 AD and which remained the dynastic legitimacy claim of the entire Flavian house.

RIC II.1 82 is among the better-documented asses of Titus's brief reign, which ended with his death in 81 AD after just twenty-six months as emperor.
