Titus, 24 June 79 - 13 September 81 A.D.
|Titus|, |Titus,| |24| |June| |79| |-| |13| |September| |81| |A.D.|, This type is from a very rare early issue of Titus as Augustus, not yet naming him P P (Pater Patriae - Father of the Country). Titus apparently accepted this title quite soon after the beginning of his ninth tribunician year on 1 July 79 and P P was quickly added to the end of the reverse legend.
