Roman | Aureus | Titus | AU-5X2
This remarkable gold aureus was struck for Titus during his years as Caesar, before his brief yet significant reign as emperor. Known today as the ruler who completed the Colosseum and dealt with the aftermath of Vesuvius’ eruption, Titus first built his reputation as a capable military commander and heir apparent to Vespasian.
The obverse presents a detailed portrait of Titus, reflecting the strong Flavian style emphasizing authority and stability. The reverse depicts Victory standing upon an altar with entwined serpents, an image symbolizing Rome’s divine favor and enduring strength. This type reinforced the Flavian dynasty’s legitimacy during a time of continued transition and consolidation of power.
Graded by NGC as About Uncirculated, with a superb Strike 5/5 and Surface 2/5, this aureus survives in excellent condition considering its age. It remains an outstanding example of Flavian coinage and a desirable addition for collectors seeking high-grade Roman gold.
