Titus Pax Sestertius
« on: May 10, 2023, 08:43:19 am »
I have a great fondness for the coinage struck during Titus's reign ... so much so that even a 'common' Titus sestertius brings me joy. This one is my latest addition.

And in hand.

As always, thank you for looking!

The in hand video brings out the details better than the picture.  Nice coin in hand!

Nice addition!   I have a similar coin in my collection but of the Balkan mint (that's what the seller said).   I bought this coin many years ago and it still impresses me in hand.  Enjoy!

The seller was indeed correct. Handsome example!
