Few denarii for discussion. Which do you find most appealing or of a fine style? Took a crack at the RICs with volume 2 book.

Titus-Denarii-For-Grading/Identification
- looks to be RIC874 with Jupiter holding scepter, left sacrifice at altar. I grade it VF with good centering

Titus-Denarii-For-Grading/Identification
-RIC102 ? Victory over British with Britannia at left and captive soldier at right. Looks to be XF, I'd call this fine style

Titus-Denarii-For-Grading/Identification
-RIC128 with dolphin at top of tripod. I'd call this XF almost AU fine style.

Patina of coin 2 looks best, but I think coin #3 has the edge in my opinion. Thoughts & discussion appreciated!

They are all excellent examples, but I agree #3 is probably the best of the lot.

Superb coins all three

#3 has the best portrait of Vespasian, but of the reverses I like the happy Jupiter on #1 best!
