Beschrijving keerzijde The winged goddess Victoria is depicted standing left in the field, her large spread wings clearly rendered behind her. She holds a large oval shield inscribed or decorated, which she sets upon a low base or palm branch, in the canonical type associated with Flavian victory commemorations. The legend VICTORIA AVGVSTI is disposed around the upper and lateral periphery, with the senatorial authority mark S C appearing in the lower field on either side of the figure. A post-antique piercing is visible at the bottom of the flan. The overall style is consistent with the Rome mint production of AD 71.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in 71 AD, the year Vespasian celebrated his triumph over Judaea alongside his son Titus — a procession that carried the Menorah and other spoils of the destroyed Temple through Rome. The Flavian victory propaganda was relentless that year, saturating the coinage with references to IVDAEA CAPTA and associated Victory types. This sestertius belongs to that same ideological campaign, minted at Rome as the new dynasty worked urgently to legitimize itself after the chaos of 69 AD, the Year of the Four Emperors.

RIC II.1 225 is among the more frequently documented specimens of the Vespasianic bronze series.
