| Reverse description | Victory personified, draped and advancing to the right, extending her right hand forward to present a wreath and carrying a palm branch over her left shoulder — a composition emblematic of Roman military triumph and imperial peace. The figure is rendered in the elegant, flowing style characteristic of Flavian reverse iconography, with drapery articulated in fine relief. The reverse legend PACI AVGVSTAE is inscribed in the field, framing the deity and invoking the concept of Augustan peace. The palm frond, a traditional symbol of victory, reinforces the propagandistic message of Vespasian's restoration of order following the civil wars of 69 AD. |
