JULIA TITI. Dupondio. (Ae. 12.47g / 28mm). 80-81 AD Rome. Anv: IVLIA IMP T AVG AVGVSTA. Draped bust with bow on the right of Julia Titi. Rev: CERES AVGVSTI. Ceres shelf to left holding spikes and scepter. (RIC 392). XF. Contemporary patina. Very rare specimen. Or also known as Julia Flavia, she was the only daughter of Emperor Tito and his second wife Furnilla. A woman of great beauty ended up being the lover of her uncle Domitian who, once emperor, had her husband, Sabino, assassinated to make a marital life with her. The coins in which Julia Flavia appears maintain realism as their main hallmark but without hiding a certain sweetness on her feminine face.
