| Beschrijving keerzijde | A dynamic scene occupying the central field depicts Titus as an armoured equestrian figure on a galloping horse moving to the right, thrusting a spear downward toward a fallen enemy warrior crouched beneath the horse's hooves. The rider wears a cuirass and a radiate or plumed helmet, and raises a weapon aloft in a gesture of victory. A groundline separates the figural composition from the exergue, beneath which the senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is prominently placed in large letters. The bold, vigorous treatment of the composition reflects the triumphal iconography associated with the Flavian dynasty's military propaganda following the Jewish War. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This sestertius dates to 73 AD, when Titus held the tribunician power jointly with his father Vespasian — a constitutional arrangement designed to signal dynastic continuity and prepare the succession after the chaos of 69 AD. The previous year had seen the destruction of Jerusalem and the close of the Jewish War, a campaign Titus had personally commanded, and the Flavian regime was still converting that military prestige into political capital. RIC II.1 564 is attributed to the Rome mint under Vespasian's reign with Titus as Caesar, placing this piece squarely in that consolidation period.
