Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Emperor Titus facing right, with short hair and a muscular neck, rendered in the realistic portraiture style characteristic of Flavian imperial coinage. The effigy is draped at the shoulder, with the laurel wreath clearly articulated. The encircling legend reads IMP TITVS CAES VESPASIAN AVG P M in Latin capitals, distributed around the periphery of the flan. The die work is confident and of high quality, consistent with output from the Rome mint during the early years of Titus's sole reign. The flan is irregular in shape, as is typical of hand-struck silver coinage of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in the immediate aftermath of the Jewish War, this issue belongs to a group celebrating Rome's destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD — an event Titus commanded as general before his accession. The EX S C formula, indicating senatorial authorization, appears on a relatively small subset of Flavian denarii and remains only partially explained by scholars; the precise administrative distinction it marks from standard issues is still debated.

Titus died in September 81 after a reign of just over two years, making the window for this type narrow.
