Just added this interesting Vespasian denarius

« on: June 25, 2020, 05:24:42 pm »

I knew that this type existed so as soon as I saw it I knew I wanted it. The reverse legend is only known for 2 denarii. I really like the figure of victory on the reverse. Also, the portrait is unusual. According to RIC this coin was struck at an uncertain Spanish mint. Some say that it was Tarraco because of the coins of Vitellius struck there. The portrait styles are comparable.
