| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate head of Vespasian facing right, with a small globe positioned at the base of the neck truncation, a distinctive iconographic detail associating the emperor with universal dominion. The portrait is rendered in the realistic Flavian style, conveying authority and gravitas. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery of the flan. The overall composition is characteristic of Flavian sestertius coinage struck at Rome in AD 71. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued in 71 AD, this sestertius belongs to a remarkable dynastic grouping struck to advertise Vespasian's newly consolidated Flavian house following the civil wars of 69. With Titus already proven in the field — the siege of Jerusalem was underway — and Domitian positioned as heir-in-waiting, Vespasian used the coinage aggressively to project succession stability. The three-figure dynastic type was a deliberate political calculation, not a standard production.
RIC II.1 1133 is among the scarcer types of the 71 emissions, the dynastic sestertii having been struck in more limited runs than the single-portrait issues from the same year.
