<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Atherton, post: 2583511, member: 82616&quot;]Nice example! This is a fairly common reverse type from 73 AD which pays tribute to the &#039;Tribute Penny&#039; reverse struck by Tiberius. Your coin is most likely RIC 546 (CENS), the most common legend variant of the type. But it would be hard to tell for certain since your reverse legend is worn at the crucial attribution spot. Only a die match with another specimen with full legends would determine it for sure. FWIW, it&#039;s very similar to my RIC 546.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]561214[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Vespasian</b></p><p>AR Denarius, 3.50g</p><p>Rome mint, 73 AD</p><p>RIC 546 (C3), BMC 98, RSC 387</p><p>Obv: IMP CAES VESP AVG CENS; Head of Vespasian, laureate, r. </p><p>Rev: PONTIF MAXIM; Vespasian, togate, seated r., feet on stool, holding vertical sceptre in r. hand and branch in l. </p><p><br /></p><p>Regardless, it&#039;s nice to see you got one![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
