| Beschrijving keerzijde | The goddess Victoria is depicted standing in the field, rendered as a winged female figure in flowing drapery, advancing or standing with attributes consistent with standard Flavian Victory types. The senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the field, flanking the central figure, as was mandatory for bronze denominations of the Roman imperial series. The surrounding legend VICTORIA AVGVSTI is distributed around the periphery in Latin capitals. The reverse field exhibits extensive green patination and surface porosity consistent with prolonged burial and circulation wear. The composition and iconographic program celebrate the military victories of Vespasian, likely referencing the conclusion of the Jewish War. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vespasian struck heavily in bronze during 71 AD, the year following his consolidation of power after the chaos of 69 — the Year of the Four Emperors. The Victoria messaging was deliberate propaganda: not merely the defeat of rivals Galba, Otho, and Vitellius, but the recent sack of Jerusalem under his son Titus, which Vespasian used relentlessly to legitimize Flavian rule. Victory coinage in this year was minted in volume across multiple officinae, and die links between issues remain an active area of study in Flavian numismatics.
