Titus Colloseum Coin?

Is it a Titus Auguste (79-81) AD, Coin?

Here is another similar but doesn't have that nice colosseum reverse

TITUS Auguste (79-81), AE as, 80-81, Rome. D/ IMP T CAES VESP AVG PM TR P COS VIII T. l. à d. R/ PAX- AVGVST/ S-C Pax deb. à g., ten. un rameau et un long caducee. BMC 267, 212 var. (note); RIC 229. 10,36g Patine vert clair. Beau à Très Beau Fine - Very Fine Estimate: 100 EUR...

I've got even closer and found this on wildwinds...

TITUS, as Augustus, AE sestertius. 80-81 AD.

Obv: IMP T CAES VESP AVG P M TR P P P COS VIII, Titus seated on curule chair
amidst arms, holding branch & scroll.
Rev: The Colosseum, (Amphitheatrum Flavium, or "Flavian Amphitheatre"),
showing part of the interior, with gangways, arch, and rows of spectators.
Large SC flanking the Colosseum.

The obelisk and the two tiered porticoed structure, as on RIC 110, are both
missing.
This unlisted, unpublished variant is known from some 5 specimens, three of
which are in museums.

So, in my opinion, and that doesn't mean very much, but I'd say it was very rare! :)

For Ancient Roman collectors that coin is one of our Holy Grails, or Honus Wagners to mix metaphors.
On Feb 2, 2016 this example sold for $155,000 US (without buyer's fees).

Needless to say if you run across this coin at a shop or for sale online it is likely a copy or forgery - unless it is in very poor condition, and even then one such sold on Jan 30, 2016 for 8,000 pounds.

The only coin that beats that in terms of rarity is the Eid Mar, coined by Brutus to celebrate the assassination of Julius Caesar:

Well, whatever you find becomes the property of the State. http://www.ncmd.co.uk/law.html#ITALY

As an ancient Roman coin collector it's a bit ironic to me that I've seen more coins outside of Italy (in museums or for sale) than on my travels within Italy. Antiquities laws in Europe regarding ancient coins strike me as... antiquated.
