<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ryro, post: 7590374, member: 91461&quot;]Technically, I bought 4 Flavians in Artemide&#039;s under the radar auction today, but only two coins<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie98" alt=":wacky:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Leu was bonkers, as was Savoca. So I was really surprised at the prices I won these two popular types for (despite a little wear)!</p><p>Pretty rare to get three Augies on one coin and three this historicaly important even more so!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1307579[/ATTACH] </p><p>Vespasian with Titus and Domitian as Caesares (69-79). AR Denarius, Lugdunum mint, 70-71 AD. Obv. Laureate head of Vespasian right. Rev. Confronted bare heads of Titus and Domitian. RIC II-p. 1 (2nd ed.) 283; C. 6. AR. 2.36 g. 16.00 mm. RR. Very rare and interesting dynastic issue, with triple Flavian portrait.

I totally get the allure of this family. Especially with Vespy having been such a bad ace, the Jewish wars and the bizarreness of Damn-it-son <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie46" alt=":facepalm:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />(just thought up that one<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie52" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />). </p><p>Though, [USER=82616]@David Atherton[/USER] and [USER=74968]@Orfew[/USER] need not worry about me leaving my MSCs to specialize in this area, it&#039;s too popular... and pricey<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie87" alt=":sorry:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1307590[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>And I finally acquired a type I&#039;ve sought for some time<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie33" alt=":cigar:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I&#039;ve already got a Julia Titi, but not Denarius nor with that bug ole backside!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie101" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":wideyed:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie60" alt=":kiss:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1307580[/ATTACH] </p><p>Julia Titi, daughter of Titus (died 90 AD).
