    It's not Vespasian either. It's a reproduction of a Titus denarius.

    I wrote to the seller and pointed out all of the issues. I guess you or others did as well because the listed was ended a minute ago :).

    Edited: Wow, that seller responded to my PM immediately and took action immediately. Good for him/her.

    'This listing was ended by the seller because the item was lost or broken.' lol

    At any rate, if anyone was dying to get that rare variant, perhaps this seller has one. http://www.westair-reproductions.com/ :angelic:

    That's pretty rare too.

    It makes you wonder how they acquired a museum replica and thought it was genuinely ancient?

    If the seller knows nothing about ancient coins, maybe the person who sold it to them said it was authentic and, not knowing any better, they believed it.

    But it says IMP. VESPASIANVS?

    The legend is counterclockwise and reads T CAESAR IMP VESPASIANVS. The legend begins at ~5:00, just to the right of the point of the bust.
