Vespasian RIC II 1408
|
Vespasian 69-79 A.D. AR Denarius. Ephesus Mint, 70A.D. (2.63g, 17.4mm, 7h). Obv: IMP CAESAR VESPAS AVG COS II TR PPP, laureate head r. Rev: AVG and Ɵ in oak wreath. RIC II 1408, RPC 817.
The obverse legend is worn on the right side, but the portrait is high relieve- typical of Ephesus. The reverse is off center, but the Ɵ is still visible in the center of the bottom of the wreath marking this coin’s mint. Thanks to Forum’s David Atherton for identifying this coin for me.
