[QUOTE="Limes, post: 3787098, member: 101013"]Thank you for this informative thread [USER=14873]@jamesicus[/USER]. I have a Restoration issue of Augustus (see below), struck under Tiberius to compare it with your issue struck under Titus. The reverse is listed as a large alter, closed doors, with SC in the field left/right respectively and PROVIDENT below. I don't have a Restoration issue by Titus in my collection.
