Here is what I went with, but I could be wrong:
(Even if I think I see an "OM" at 8 o'clock behind the bust, that should be at 10 o'clock. And the crossed shields on the trophy and letters to the right of the bust at 2 o'clock are a much better match for Titus. Only my opinion.)
Judaea Capta Titus 79-81 AD, 24mm, 13.76g, Caesarea Maritima (Tag says Domitian)
AYTOKP TITOΣ KAIΣAP, laureate head of Titus right / IOVΔAIAΣ EAΛωKYIAΣ,
trophy; to left, Judaea seated left with hands bound; to right, shield.
TJC 384; Hendin 1449; RPC 2313.
The following is from a Triskeles reference I used to ID the coin:
"Titus led the final siege of Jerusalem, conquering and destroying the
city. Upon his return to Rome an exorbitant victory procession was held.
The Arch of Titus which commemorates this event stands in Rome to this day."

I would agree with the basic premise: Titus, not Domitian.

Example of Hendin 1449 on NumisBids, for comparison.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
