Titus as Caesar Denarius

My latest acquisition fills a hole in my collection I thought was already filled - after checking my records it hadn't been. https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-128926

Oddly enough, I had already acquired the rare mules accidentally struck for Titus Caesar from this issue but had failed to add the more common correct one. I think it's a decent example.

Nice coin David. The nose on the portrait is amazing.

Thanks Andrew! The early Titus Caesar portraits tend to have the 'Roman' nose. I quite like it too.
