| Beschrijving keerzijde | The goddess Concordia is depicted seated left upon a throne or chair of state, rendered in flowing draped robes. She extends her right hand forward, likely holding a patera or offering gesture, while her left hand rests upon a long vertical sceptre. The legend CONCORD AVGVST arcs around the upper field, with the senatorial authorisation mark S C prominently placed in the lower exergual area beneath the seated figure. The composition reflects the standard Flavian iconographic programme emphasising imperial harmony and dynastic concord. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck in 79 AD, the year Vespasian died and Titus briefly succeeded him, this dupondius belongs to the transitional coinage issued in Titus's name but almost certainly planned under the Flavian administrative apparatus that had standardized output since 69. Domitian, still caesar at this point, had his own parallel series running through the same Rome mint.
The Concordia type was politically loaded in Flavian hands — the dynasty had built its legitimacy on ending the civil wars of 69, and peace among the imperial family was as much a propaganda necessity as a pious sentiment. That Domitian continued issuing under his own name while Titus reigned speaks to the careful balance Vespasian had engineered.
