Just added this mule denarius of Titus

[orfew]

So I bought this coin as an unsold lot. I was interested in it because I had a hard time finding any information on it at all. It is listed as RIC 36. On Acsearch I found one example. In my copy of RIC II part 1 (2007) the conversion table reports that Titus 36 and 37 are plated hybrids.

I know this reverse is common for Domitian but I have never seen it on a coin of Titus until today.

@David Atherton has told me it is a mule. Whether it is official of unofficial is unknown. The reverse is common for Domitian.


Here is the coin.

Titus AR Denarius. Rome, AD 79. IMP TITVS CAES VESPASIAN AVG P M, laureate head right / PRINCEPS IVVENTVTIS, goat standing left within laurel wreath. RIC II 36. 2.97g, 14mm, 6h.
Near Very Fine.

That's not a mule => that's a mighty fine "goat" you've got there ...
