Comment
Source: Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a rare representation of Julia Titi, the daughter of Titus, on the reverse side. She is depicted standing next to her father, who is seated on a throne, and is shown holding a scepter and a small statue of Victory. This image is significant because it highlights the importance of Julia Titi's role in Roman society and politics during her father's reign. Additionally, the coin's bronze material and relatively small weight of 3.37 grams make it a unique and valuable artifact for collectors and historians.
