| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two togate figures, identified as Titus and Domitian, seated facing one another on a raised platform or curule seats — Titus to the right and Domitian to the left — each holding a sceptre or parazonium, in an arrangement emphasising their dynastic roles as Caesars and heirs. The composition is symmetrical and formally imperial in character, with both figures depicted in full toga and the platform suggesting an official or military context. The legend encircles the field, and the senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) appears prominently in the lower exergue, affirming the bronze coinage's senatorial sanction. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued in 71 AD, this sestertius belongs to a small and politically deliberate group struck to advertise dynastic continuity immediately after the Flavian seizure of power. Vespasian had only formally entered Rome in October 70, and the joint representation of both sons on the coinage was a calculated message — the new dynasty had heirs, and the chaos of 69 AD's four emperors would not repeat itself. Titus had just concluded the siege of Jerusalem; Domitian, barely twenty, had spent the Year of the Four Emperors making awkward political maneuvers on the Capitoline.
RIC II.1 55 is a relatively scarce type within the early Flavian sestertius sequence.
