A New Titus Mars Reverse Variety
« on: May 29, 2023, 04:40:05 am »
A few weeks ago I posted a unique Titus Judaea Capta sestertius from a newly discovered issue.

By a lucky coincidence I was recently able to add the other reverse type newly recorded for the issue. I am very overjoyed to have won it!

As always, thank you for looking!

A coin that is as rare as it is interesting. A great addition to your outstanding Flavian collection David. Well done.

Thanks Steve! I never thought I would have the chance to add the the only other type so far recorded for the issue.

Fortuna be praised!
