Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Securitas seated to the right on a low throne or chair, rendered in a relaxed, contemplative pose with one arm resting and the figure appearing to hold a sceptre or patera. A small altar or brazier is visible to the lower right of the figure. The legend SECVRITAS AVGVSTI arcs around the upper field, while the senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the lower field on either side of the exergue line. The composition exemplifies the allegorical reverse types favoured on Flavian orichalcum and bronze coinage to promote themes of imperial stability and security.

Aanvullende informatie

Vespasian struck SECVRITAS AVGVSTI coinage in the early 70s as deliberate propaganda following the chaos of 69 AD — the Year of the Four Emperors — during which Galba, Otho, and Vitellius each died within months. The message was blunt: instability was over. The new Flavian dynasty intended to stay.

RIC II.1 1197 belongs to the Rome mint output of 72 AD, a year in which Vespasian was consolidating both the Jewish War's aftermath and Titus's growing public role as heir apparent.
