Dupondius - Livia IMP T CAES DIVI VESP F AVG REST, Justitia

This is a "restitution" issue — coins struck by Titus explicitly commemorating earlier imperial coinages rather than his own reign. Livia had died in 29 AD, more than fifty years before this piece was struck, making the gesture conspicuously retrospective. Titus was positioning his dynasty by reaching back to Augustus's widow, reinforcing Flavian legitimacy through association with the Julio-Claudian line. The restitution series under Titus covers a remarkably wide range of earlier types, suggesting a deliberate, coordinated program rather than opportunistic copying.

The original Livian Justitia dupondii were struck under Tiberius, likely after her death when she was honoured more freely than during her lifetime.
