| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and draped bust of Titus facing right, rendered in high relief in the characteristic Flavian portrait style. The emperor is depicted with short curly hair beneath a laurel wreath, and aegis or drapery visible at the shoulder. The encircling legend runs clockwise from the lower left around the full circumference of the coin, naming Titus in his capacity as Caesar under his father Vespasian. The portrait exhibits the robust, naturalistic modeling typical of official Flavian dynastic coinage struck at the Rome mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck in 72 AD under Vespasian, this sestertius was issued in the name of Titus while he held tribunician power and the imperium as his father's designated heir — a calculated dynastic signal from the newly established Flavian house, still consolidating power after the civil wars of 69 AD. The S C formula, authorizing the Senate's nominal control over base-metal coinage, was by this point largely ceremonial, but the Flavians were careful to maintain republican formalities.
RIC II.1 476 is a Judaea Capta-era type, produced at the height of Flavian propaganda commemorating the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD, the campaign that cemented Titus's military reputation before he ever ruled in his own right.
