Outstanding coin Andrew! All coins of Titus are bearded, it depends on the amount of wear whether you can see one or not. I always describe his coins as 'bearded'.
I never really noticed before, but I think you're right, even though the photos in RCV and RSC are so small that it's hard to tell sometimes. It's certainly true even of the coins issued when he was Caesar, like mine: Taking that together with the coins (and statues) of Nero showing him with a chinstrap beard, as @Herodotus points out, it's rather obvious that the oft-repeated statements that Hadrian was the first emperor with any sort of beard are incorrect. Although I think it's still safe to say that he was the first emperor to wear a full beard! As I asked before, does a mere chinstrap really count in the world of beards? Based on the old family photos I have, my most recent direct male ancestor to wear any kind of beard was one of my great-great-grandfathers (my father was always clean-shaven, and one grandfather as well as both great-grandfathers wore mustaches), as shown in this 1859 photograph taken in Pomerania, in which he sits on the far right. But it was a mere chinstrap as well, and I probably saw this photo 100 times before I ever noticed it, because the portion under his chin blends in with his tie: So I'm still not sure it really counts!

On my very mediocre example of that coin, Mars is completely clean-shaven -- no goatee, no neck beard, no long sideburns, no cigarette or toothpick. In other words, more of an All-American Boy look than your 1950s beatnik look. I haven't checked to see which look is more prevalent for this coin type.
