RIC 0320 VespasianÆ As, 8.82g
Rome mint, 71 AD
Obv: IMP CAES VESPASIAN AVG COS III; Head of Vespasian, laureate, r.
Rev: S C in field; Aquila between two standards, all on prows
RIC 320 (R). BMC 613. BNC 591.
Acquired from CGB, March 2024.
The aquila between two standards type was struck early in Vespasian's reign to honour the loyalty of the legions. The aquila, which featured an eagle clutching a thunderbolt, was the most important standard of any legion. With the recent successful completion of the Civil War and Jewish rebellion, the immense value of the legion's support is not lost on Vespasian! The type was later revived under Titus and Domitian for their cistophori.David AthertonApr 15, 2024

(RIC VI 55 was described as having the obverse legend GAL VAL MAXIMINVS NOBIL C, based on a coin in the British Museum (Maurice ii, p. 6, no 21). However a footnote in RIC says, “Recorded in B.M. ; does it exist anywhere?” It is now likely that a coin with NOBILI C was intended, which is in the British Museum collection (reg. no. B.68; acquisition date 1814).)
