The Roman currency during the reign of Titus included such coins as denarius and sestertius. Detailed information regarding the coins is provided below.

Denarius (79AD)

Most of the coin stuck in precious metal during the short reign of Titus included an interesting combination of symbolic and religious illustrations. Such images honored the services of prayer and pacification with the help of which Titus hoped to calm the alarm of the public after the disastrous events that took place in Rome, such as the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and plague.

Thrones can be found set in pairs for gods and goddesses. Each throne is surmounted by an emblem of a deity. These symbols were presented for gods' agreement, showing an act of atonement. Through such means Titus wanted to end the disasters. On this coin there are several symbols: a seat or table, which is surmounted by a thunderbolt, a symbol of Jupiter or an ornamented diadem, a symbol of Juno. There's an image of a dolphin interlaced around an anchor, symbolizing Neptune. There's a tripod, which is surmounted by a dolphin, symbolizing Apollo and in addition there is a curule chair that is surmounted by a wreath, referring to the divi, past emperors of Rome who were deified, such as: Augustus, Claudius, and Vespasian.

Denarius (80AD to 81AD)

The obverse of the ancient Roman coin features the head of Vespasian laureate, surrounded by the legend that reads DIVVS AVGVSTVS VESPASIANVS. The coin's reverse illustrates a shield with an inscription that states S C found on cippus on which the urn stands. On the right and left of cippus there's <EX>. There are also laurels found on the right and left.

Detailed information about the Roman coin:

After the death of Vespasian, the father of Titus, in 79 AD, coins were struck to commemorate the deified Roman emperor. The goal of such strike was to promote Titus' own divine lineage. The coin's obverse depicts the image of Vespasian. He wears a laurel crown, which is surrounded by the legend DIVVS AVGVSTVS VESPASIANVS. The legend can be translated as "The Deified Vespasian Augustus."

The reverse of the Roman coin illustrates a shield with the inscription on it that states Senatus Consulto. The inscription rests against a cippus. In Roman Epire cippus was a stone, raised in memory of a particular event. The urn found on the cippus, probably refers to the death and deification of Emperor Vespasian. It is most likely that the urn contains the remnants of the deified emperor. The meaning of the urn corresponds to the legend written on the coin's obverse. Other symbols found on the ancient Roman coin are the laurel trees, illustrated on each side of the cippus. These trees represent Vespasian's victory and military achievements, including the stagnation of the Jewish revolt.

Sestertius (80AD)

The obverse of this Roman coin shows the head of Titus laureate. The image is surrounded by the legend IMP T CAES VESP AVG P M TR P P P COS VIII. The coin's reverse depicts Peace, who is standing with an olive branch in her right hand while her left hand holds a cornucopia. The image of Peace is surrounded by PAX AVGVST. To left and right there's S C.

The son of Vespasian, Titus, took the same strategy as his father. Through the issue of such Roman coin he looked forward to promote his reign as a period of empire's prosperity and peace. The obverse of this particular Roman coin shows Titus wearing a laurel crown.
