| Beschrijving voorzijde | Radiate bust of Emperor Titus facing left, draped at the shoulder, portrayed with characteristic Flavian physiognomy. The radiate crown, composed of evenly spaced points, identifies this denomination as a dupondius. The surrounding Latin legend runs clockwise from the lower left, naming the emperor with his full titulature. The portrait is rendered in the naturalistic style typical of Flavian imperial coinage struck at Rome. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Titus reigned just over two years — one of the shortest reigns in the Principate — yet his tenure was defined by successive catastrophes: the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD, a fire that devastated Rome in 80 AD, and a plague that followed immediately after. The SECVRITAS type issued in this period carried pointed political weight, projecting stability precisely when the administration was scrambling to fund disaster relief and rebuild public confidence.
RIC II.1 208 is attested in both orichalcum and bronze fabric, and collectors should note the distinction matters for attribution.
