| Reverse description | Pax, semi-draped and naked to the waist, seated left upon a throne, extending an olive branch in her raised right hand while holding a long transverse sceptre in her left. Before her, in the lower left field, a bearded Dacian captive kneels in submission, a powerful allegorical reference to Rome's triumph in the Dacian Wars. The composition is framed by the reverse legend in two lines across the field. The scene is executed in the classicising style typical of Trajanic numismatic art, combining political symbolism with elegant figural representation. |
