It's may not really be the year that is important (iirc Galba was murdered mid January of 69, so to keep him in, you need the Christian/common calendar), but perhaps it's when Vespasian was emperor: when he was acclaimed by his troops (July 1st, 69) or formally acknowledged by the senate/became Consul?
Or it could simply be that since there's 193 AD, you might for clarity's sake speak of the year of the Four Emperors for 69?
