| Beschrijving keerzijde | A sea-goat (capricorn), a mythological hybrid creature combining the foreparts of a goat with a fish tail, is depicted in dynamic profile striding to the right above a globe, a symbol of world dominion associated with the Flavian dynasty. The creature is rendered with careful attention to its scaled hindquarters and curved tail. The surrounding legend TR P VIIII IMP XV COS VII P P is distributed around the field in Latin capitals, with a beaded border at the rim. This reverse type, referencing Vespasian's birth sign, was used on coinage of both Vespasian and Titus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This denarius dates to 79 AD, the year Titus became sole emperor following Vespasian's death in June — and the same year Vesuvius buried Pompeii and Herculaneum in August. The tribunician power count of VIIII and the fifteenth imperatorial acclamation help pin this issue to a remarkably compressed window, likely the second half of that year, when the new emperor was simultaneously managing dynastic transition and catastrophic disaster relief.
RIC II.1 #37 is among the rarer Titus denarius types from his short two-year reign.
