Yes. One of the first Titus denarii I ever purchased way back in 2004 from a now defunct coin dealer. Those of you who were ancient coining back...
A nice example! Hopefully it will speedily head your way after clearing customs.
Those of you that are familar with my Flavian coin fixation will not be surprised by my newest addition. In 80 AD, Titus struck a series of...
Sometimes the mint just did not engrave 'S C' on the AE coinage. I don't know the reasons why the mint workers were not consistent about it.
Personally, I'm glad that you are orienting towards the Flavian era. It gives me another person to geek out with. And I love your two new...
A very respectable coin Sallent! Here is one with Domitian on horseback, possibly holding a sceptre mounted by a human skull(!). [ATTACH]...
Oh gosh, I came too late to chime in. First thing, it is certainly not a fourrée. My previous comments about this same coin clearly indicated so....

Very impressive! The historical figure of King John on a coin is really awesome. What a terrific coin!

This is one of my favourite Cappadocian types. Fantastic coins everyone!
Nice example of 124c!
The Colosseum was officially opened in 80 (probably late spring/early summer) when Titus was COS VIII. Your 'VTII' is VIII, it just has a line...
BTW, your coin is RIC 124a (triangular frame with 5 palmettes).
Yes. And I won't get into the fact that particular type comes in a few variations!
That goes without saying! It reminds me of the Hot Wheels collector in this segment. [MEDIA]
You folks are a smart group! It is indeed the wingless thunderbolt that made the coin of interest to me. In the new RIC II the type is described...
