Not Pretty, But Historical

I recently acquired this Judaea Capta type from Lyon. https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-150776

Pretty remarkable the event was still celebrated near the end of Vespasian's reign.

Thanks Andrew. Needless to say, it's one of those coins that looks better in hand.
