An unpublished Dupondius of Titus as Caesar
« on: May 30, 2020, 05:23:29 am »
Hello everyone.

All Titus coins issued in the 72-73 issue are rare.

The Concordia reverse on dupondii was unknown at the date of publication of RIC 2.1, but later one had surfaced which had been assigned the number 503A in A&C.

That coin had S C in exergue, while this new exemplar of mine has the same in the field, so it was provisionally given the reference 503B.

I'm happy to share it here.

Alberto

Great find Alberto.  Did you send it in to Carradice?

Thanks Jay,

of course I sent it to him, hence I got the provisional number.

Thanks Eric.

For us collectors who specialize, finding new specimens is one of the most exciting things.
