Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Pax (Peace) seated left on a high-backed chair, her body rendered in flowing drapery leaving the upper torso partially bare. She extends her right hand forward holding an olive branch, a universal symbol of peace and reconciliation in Roman iconography. Her left arm rests at her side, likely holding a sceptre or cornucopiae. The surrounding Latin legend records Titus's priestly and magisterial titles, distributed evenly around the circumferential field.

Aanvullende informatie

This denarius was struck when Titus held the tribunician power under Vespasian, during a period when the imperial family was consolidating the ideological machinery of the new Flavian dynasty. The Pax reverse was not incidental — Vespasian had staked the legitimacy of his reign on restoring order after the civil wars of 69 AD, and coinage celebrating peace served that program directly. Titus appears here as heir apparent, his accumulating titles carefully broadcast through the mint.

RIC II.1 865 is a well-documented type, but the series can present attribution difficulties where tribunician numbering is concerned, as parallel issues exist across adjacent years with closely related legends.
