| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare, bearded head of the Sabine king Titus Tatius facing right, rendered in the late-Republican style with fine engraving of facial features. The monogram TA or a palm-branch appears before the portrait in the right field, serving as a secondary identifying mark. The moneyer's name SABIN is inscribed in a counterclockwise arc in the left field, referencing the Sabine heritage claimed by the moneyer Lucius Titurius Sabinus. The portrait exhibits a naturalistic treatment characteristic of the Roman Republican denarius series of the late second to early first century BC. No border of dots or wreath surrounds the design, consistent with irregular flan production of the period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two Roman soldiers stand facing one another, each carrying a Sabine woman in his arms, depicting the mythological Rape of the Sabine Women — a scene directly alluding to the moneyer's gens and its claimed Sabine origins. The figures are rendered in vigorous relief with detailed military dress, conveying narrative drama uncommon in Republican coinage. The composition is symmetrical, with the two groups balanced across the central field. The moneyer's name L•TITVRI appears in the exergue below the ground line, identifying the issuing magistrate Lucius Titurius Sabinus. The scene is presented without a border, on the characteristically irregular flan typical of late Roman Republican silver coinage struck circa 89 BC. |
