Vespasian. AD 69-79. Æ Sestertius (33mm, 25.43 g, 6h). Rome mint. Struck AD 71. Laureate head right / Mars advancing right, holding spear and trophy. RIC II 247; Cayon p. 170 (this coin illustrated). VF, green patina.

From the J. S. Wagner Collection. Ex Cahn 47 (16 May 1922), lot 262.

The accompanying collection ticket claims this coin belonged to both the George Bauer and L. Vierordt collections, but this could not be confirmed by checking either the two Bauer sales or three of the four Vierordt catalogs that CNG possesses. It is possibly ex Glendining January 1963, lot 1202 (unillustrated and with weight unlisted).
