Source: Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin As - Titus (S C) (73) from Rome › Roman Empire (27 BC - 395 AD) made of Bronze weighing 10 g is that it features an image of the Roman emperor Titus, who ruled from 79 to 81 AD. Titus is best known for his military campaigns against the Jewish rebels in Judea and for his construction projects in Rome, including the Colosseum. The coin was likely minted during his reign and circulated throughout the Roman Empire.
