| Aanvullende informatie |
Vespasian's use of Sol on coinage in 74 AD sits within a deliberate programme of religious consolidation following the civil wars of 69 — the Year of the Four Emperors — during which Vespasian had cultivated associations with eastern solar cults, particularly after his troops acclaimed him in Alexandria. The connection was politically useful: a sun god implied universal dominion and a divinely ordered restoration of stability under the new Flavian dynasty.
RIC II.1 689 is a Rome mint issue from Vespasian's fifth consulship year.
