Aanvullende informatie

Vespasian held the consulship seven times, but COS VII — dated to 76 AD — fell squarely in the period when his administration was still managing the financial strain of rebuilding Rome after the upheavals of 69, funding the Colosseum's ongoing construction, and absorbing the costs of the Judean campaign that had ended six years earlier. The denarius coinage of this period was deliberately heavy in output, partly to restore confidence in a silver supply that Nero had debased and Vespasian himself had not fully corrected.

RIC II.1 841 is among the more frequently documented types of the COS VII group, though die alignment and surface quality vary considerably across surviving examples.
