Reverse description An eagle stands facing, with wings spread and head turned to the left, perched atop a rectangular garlanded altar or base. The eagle, a quintessential symbol of Roman imperial power and apotheosis, is rendered with fine detail in the feathering of the wings and body. The consular legend COS V is divided by the eagle's body, with COS to the left and V to the right in the field. The design is set within a beaded border on an irregularly shaped hammered flan. This type commemorates Titus's fifth consulship, held in AD 76 under his father Vespasian.
