Ancient Rome 69-79AD Prow Rev. Titus as Caesar Silver Denarius VF-EF (VF30)
Titus Flavius Vespasianus (39–81 CE) was the eldest son of Vespasian and the second emperor of the Flavian dynasty, ruling from 79 to 81 CE. Before becoming emperor, he gained fame as a general for leading the Roman forces that captured Jerusalem in 70 CE, ending the Jewish revolt and destroying the Second Temple. As emperor, Titus was known for his generosity, clemency, and concern for the welfare of the people, especially during crises such as the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE and a subsequent fire in Rome. Though his reign was short, Titus earned a reputation as a just and effective ruler, celebrated by historians for his humane leadership and the stability he maintained following his father’s pragmatic rule. Titus died in year 81, his last words allegedly "I have made but one mistake."
