Julia Titi, Augusta, 79-90/1. Denarius (Silver, 21 mm, 3.40 g, 7 h), Rome, 80-81. IVLIA AVGVSTA T AVG F. Diademed and draped bust of Julia Titi to right, her hair in a plait down the back of her neck. Rev. VENVS AVG Venus standing right, half draped, nude to the hips and leaning on a column to her left, holding a helmet in her right hand and a long transverse scepter in her left. BMC 140. Cohen 14. RIC 387. A lovely coin, sharply struck and lightly toned. Good extremely fine.
