| Reverse description | A Capricorn — the mythological sea-goat and zodiacal emblem closely associated with Augustus and adopted by the Flavian dynasty — is depicted moving to the left, its body rendered in relief with curling fish-tail hindquarters and forelegs extended. Beneath the creature rests a globe, symbolising Roman dominion over the world. The reverse legend, recording Titus's tribunician and consular powers, is distributed around the periphery within a beaded border, lending the composition a formal, dynastic character. |
