|
Vespasian. 69-79 A.D. Rome Mint. 71 A.D. July-Dec. (2.98g, 6h). Obv: IMP CAES VESP AVG PM, laureate head right. Rev: AVGVR (above) TRI POT (below); Priestly implements. RIC II 43, BMC 50, RSC 43.
Despite the irregular flan shape, this is a well preserved specimen of Vespasian’s earlier coinage. At this point in his coinage, the portrait is unmistakably and consistently that of Vespasian as with this example.
