Reverse description The reverse depicts the figure of Pax standing within an octastyle temple, its elaborate pediment featuring a seated Jupiter flanked by two reclining figures. Five statues adorn the roofline of the temple, contributing to the monumental architectural composition. The legend S P Q R OPTIMO PRINCIPI appears in the field, while S C (Senatus Consultum) signifies the senatorial authorization of the bronze coinage. The architectural rendering reflects the grandeur of Trajanic building programs and the ideological association of the emperor's reign with peace and divine favour.
