SOLD $90
(TITUS), from Moesia & Thrace, period of Titus (A.D. 79-81), (6.862 grams), AE 24 with countermark of TI.C.A within square on Augustus dupondius, (Martini, Nom.6, Pangerl Collection of Countermarked Imperial coins type 89). Countermark very fine, host coin poor.
Martini notes the letters which he believes to mean TI(tus?) C(aesar) A(ugustus) and note the issues as struck on generally issues of Augustus as is this issue with SC in centre and three line legend in wreath of obverse. Martini places the issue of this type to the period of Vespasian and Titus. It was in a Thrace-Moesia area that this countermark was applied to circulating worn coinage. The Pangerl collection contained 10 examples of this countermark with most issues of similar weight.
