| Additional information |
Titus reigned just over two years, making every issue from his principate relatively short-lived in production terms. This dupondius falls within the period immediately following the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD and the devastating fire and plague that struck Rome in 80 AD — disasters that shaped the ideological messaging of his coinage, with Pax appearing as both political aspiration and public reassurance.
RIC II.1 199 is well-attested across major collections, though the brevity of the reign naturally constrains overall survivor populations compared to longer Flavian issues.
