The images show good detail, and the legend is legible. In 90 B.C., the year this coin is thought to have been struck, the Romans were suffering setbacks in the Social War, the war against their allies in Italy, who were eventually defeated, but were then given more privileges by Rome. RSC Tituria 4, Syd. The coin is lightly toned, with a couple of small surface nicks or imperfections on the obverse. Both sides are slightly off center, but nothing is off the flan.
Legends are full, but weak in places.
The depiction of Tatius is decent, and the reverse has decent detail, but is weak in the upper left hand portion. According to legend, Tarpeia, during Romulus's war with the Sabines, opened the gates of Rome to the enemy in return for a promise of gold. However, the Sabines were disgusted with her treachery, and, instead of giving her gold, buried her in a pile of shields. In 89 B.C., when this coin was likely minted, Strabo and Sulla won victories in the Social War, fought against Rome's rebellious allies in Italy. RSC Vargunteia 1, Syd.
