Additional information

This sestertius belongs to a narrow window when Titus held tribunician power alongside his father Vespasian — a deliberate constitutional arrangement designed to advertise the dynastic succession Vespasian intended. The Flavians were acutely conscious of legitimacy after the chaos of 69 AD, and the joint authority visible in coinage from this period was as much propaganda infrastructure as administrative fact.

RIC II.1 498 is attributed to the Rome mint under the revised Flavian corpus published in 2007, which significantly reorganized earlier RIC numbering for this dynasty.
