| Opschrift voorzijde | IMP TITVS CAES VESPASIAN AVG P M (Translation: Imperator Titus Caesar Vespasianus Augustus, Pontifex Maximus. Supereme commander (Imperator) Titus Caesar Vespasian, emperor (Augustus), high priest.) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | A square, draped pulvinar (divine seat or throne) is depicted facing, set within a semicircular arch or frame from which three crescent-shaped ornaments depend above the seat, alluding to the divine honors associated with the Flavian dynasty. The throne's cushioned drapery falls to either side, rendered in careful detail. The design is understood to reference the empty throne of deified Vespasian or the gods, a motif with strong Flavian religious significance. The surrounding legend is distributed across the upper and lower periphery of the flan in clear Latin capitals. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This denarius falls within Titus's ninth tribunician power, a dating bracket that places it firmly in 80 AD — the year the Flavian Amphitheatre opened and Vesuvius's destruction of Pompeii and Herculaneum was still less than a year old. The fifteenth imperatorial acclamation recorded in the obverse legend reflects military salutations that were, by this period, increasingly ceremonial rather than earned in the field; Titus himself had not commanded armies since the siege of Jerusalem in 70 AD. His reign lasted only twenty-six months total.
