Butcher and Ponting&#039;s &#039;The Metallurgy of Roman Silver Coinage&#039; will be of great interest to you!</p><p><br /></p><p>This Jupiter type indeed did not have a precedent, which is unusual for Rome at this time considering all the antique reverse types that were being recycled. If you&#039;re wanting a super rare Titus Caesar version of this type, seek out examples with &quot;VESPASIAN&quot; (RIC V863) in the obverse legend rather than the more common &quot;VESPASIANVS&quot; (RIC V874). I wouldn&#039;t have my specimen of that rarity without the help of Harry Sneh![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
