Struck in the immediate aftermath of the Jewish War, this issue belongs to a concentrated propaganda campaign Vespasian ran through the Roman mint in 71 AD to legitimize a dynasty with no hereditary claim whatsoever. The Flavians needed the coinage to do political work fast. ROMA types were part of that vocabulary — reinforcing Roman permanence at precisely the moment a new family had seized it by force.
The orichalcum fabric of this denomination was itself a Augustan invention, the alloy chosen to distinguish aes coinage by value rather than size alone. By Vespasian's reign it was well-established, though die alignment and flan preparation quality varies considerably across the 71 AD issues.
