Overview & Craftsmanship
This Julia Titi bronze sestertius replica recreates a commemorative design issued after Julia’s deification. Its central feature is the carpentum: a covered ceremonial carriage whose elaborate structure and paired mules fill the obverse.
The reverse surrounds a large S C with the titles of Emperor Domitian. Together, the two sides connect Julia’s posthumous honors with the authority of the reigning emperor.
Each coin is individually hand-struck in solid bronze. Small differences in outline, centering, relief and surface texture reflect the striking process. This listing represents our standard bronze edition of the design.
Historical & Numismatic Background
- Julia Titi belonged to the Flavian imperial family: she was the daughter of Titus, granddaughter of Vespasian and niece of Domitian.

- The carpentum was a ceremonial carriage associated with honors granted to imperial women.
