| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of Eirene (personification of Peace) standing left, draped in a chiton and himation, holding corn-ears in her extended right hand and a caduceus in her left hand. The type reflects the prosperity and pacification themes promoted under the Flavian dynasty in the eastern provinces. The Greek civic legend ΕΙΡΗΝΗ ΚΛΑΖΟΜΕΝΙΩΝ is distributed around the field, and the design is framed by a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Clazomenae had been a shadow of its classical self for centuries by the time Vespasian took power — the city had long since lost its island sanctuary and was thoroughly absorbed into the Roman provincial machinery of Asia. That it continued to strike civic bronze at all under the Flavians reflects a privilege Rome extended selectively, and Clazomenae held onto it. The reverse type invoking Eirene, the personification of peace, almost certainly alludes to the end of the civil war of 69 AD — the Year of the Four Emperors — and Vespasian's consolidation of power thereafter.
