Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Salus seated left on a throne, rendered in the classical allegorical tradition of Flavian reverse types. She extends her right hand forward, feeding a serpent that rises from the ground before her, while her left arm rests on the throne. The figure is draped in flowing robes and depicted with calm, composed dignity. The legend SALVS AVG is distributed in the field to either side of the seated figure, with no exergual inscription. The design embodies the imperial theme of the health and welfare of the emperor.

Aanvullende informatie

Vespasian struck heavily in 73 AD, the year he and Titus jointly held the censorship — an office revived after more than a century of dormancy and used deliberately to project the image of a dynasty restoring Roman tradition after Nero's excesses and the chaos of 69. The SALVS AVG type belongs to that propaganda push: public health, stability, and the safety of the emperor were being sold as synonymous concepts.

RIC II.1 #522 is an eastern mint attribution in some discussions, though OCRE places it within the broader Vespasianic series without firm workshop certainty.
