| Beschrijving keerzijde | Turreted and draped bust of a personified female figure, identified as Pax or a personification of the Orbis Terrarum, facing left. The figure wears a distinctive mural crown composed of crenellated towers, indicative of a city goddess or Tyche typology, together with a beaded necklace and draped garment visible at the bust. The surrounding Latin legend PACI ORB TERR AVG proclaims peace to the world under the authority of the Augustus, a propagandistic message emblematic of early Flavian coinage struck at the eastern mint of Ephesus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ephesus was one of the eastern mints Vespasian activated early in his reign to supply silver to troops who had backed his bid against Vitellius — coinage here was as much a logistical and political tool as an economic one. The PACI ORBIS TERRARVM legend is a direct assertion of restored peace after the brutal civil war of 69 AD, a year that consumed four emperors.
RPC II 839 places this firmly among the eastern provincial-style issues, which tend to run slightly lighter than Rome's output for the same period.
