| Reverse description | The personification of Pax/Nemesis advancing briskly to the right, depicted as a draped female figure in dynamic striding pose. With her raised right hand she grasps and draws aside her drapery at the neckline, while her extended left hand directs a caduceus downward toward a serpent coiling at her feet, symbolizing the subjugation of discord and the triumph of Augustan peace. The reverse legend arcs across the upper field in bold Latin capitals, and the overall composition reflects the ideological programme of Claudius's reign promoting imperial peace and divine order. |
