| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Pax seated left on a throne, her upper body bare to the waist and lower body draped, extending an olive branch forward in her right hand while her left hand rests in her lap. The figure conveys a calm, idealized serenity appropriate to the goddess of peace. The reverse legend is distributed around the field, with the abbreviated titulature of the emperor referencing his priestly and civic offices. The composition reflects the standard Flavian iconographic program emphasizing stability and peace following the civil wars of AD 69. |

Struck in 75 AD, this denarius falls within Vespasian's sixth consulship, a year when his administration was pressing hard to consolidate the Flavian dynasty's legitimacy after the chaos of 69 AD. The Pax reverse was not incidental — it was programmatic. Vespasian deployed the imagery of peace relentlessly across his coinage as a direct rebuttal to the civil war that had brought him to power, and the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD had given him a military victory substantial enough to back the claim.
RIC II.1 #773 is among the more precisely attributable issues of his reign, distinguished by the TR P without numeral alongside COS VI.
