| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate bust of Titus facing right, with short beard, rendered in high relief in the naturalistic Flavian portrait style. The effigy displays characteristic facial features of the young Caesar, including a strong jaw and curled hair beneath the wreath. The encircling Latin legend reads T CAESAR IMP VESPASIAN, distributed around the periphery of the flan within a beaded border. The portrait conveys both military authority and dynastic legitimacy befitting Titus's position as heir to Vespasian. |

Struck in 76 AD, this aureus dates to the year Titus held his fifth consulship under Vespasian — a deliberate political signal that the heir apparent was being groomed for succession with full Flavian ceremony. Vespasian's dynasty was still consolidating legitimacy earned through civil war rather than dynastic inheritance, and the consulships of Titus served as visible, repeated endorsements of the succession plan. Titus would not become emperor until 79 AD, the same year Vesuvius buried Pompeii and Herculaneum.
