<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 3399946, member: 74968&quot;]HI All,</p><p><br /></p><p>I just captured this great Titus denarius. It was again misattributed. This time the misattribution concern not a dating combination bu the position of 2 captive figures on the reverse. The auction house said this coin was RIC 105 which has Man on left Woman on right. On this coin it is Woman on left man on right. That makes this coin RIC 103. In this case it makes little difference with regard to stated rarity, both are (R2). Perhaps David can confirm that 105 appears to be a bit rarer.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know the coin is dark but I absolutely loved the portrait of Titus. It is really well done imho.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please post your darkly toned coins or coins of Titus.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Titus, 79 - 81 n. Chr. Denar (2.96g). 80 n. Chr.
