| Aanvullende informatie |
This sestertius was struck under Titus as Caesar, during the co-regency period of Vespasian's reign — before Titus became emperor in his own right in 79 AD. The Spes type belongs to a broader Flavian program of dynastic messaging, reinforcing Titus as the designated successor at a moment when the new dynasty, only seven years old, still needed to project continuity. Vespasian had seized power through civil war; the coinage of his son was one instrument for normalizing the succession.
