| Beschrijving keerzijde | A seated female figure, identified as Pax, is shown facing left at center, enthroned on an ornate chair or throne, holding a patera in her extended right hand and a sceptre or long staff in her left hand. The abbreviated legend C CAELIVS PAX AVG IIVIR D D P P occupies the lower portion of the field and exergue, while C VIBIO MARSO PRCOS III appears in the upper and outer legend, naming the proconsul Gaius Vibius Marsus in his third term and the duovir Gaius Caelius Pax. The letters D and D, marking the decree of the decurions, appear prominently flanking the central figure in the field. The overall composition reflects the iconographic conventions of Augustan and Tiberian provincial coinage, combining imperial allegory with local magistrate titulature. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Utica, one of the oldest Phoenician settlements in North Africa and a city that had served as the administrative capital of Africa Proconsularis before Carthage's restoration under Caesar, issued this piece under the authority of C. Vibius Marsus, who held the proconsulship in 29–30 AD. The dual magistrates named in the legend — the IIviri — reflect the municipal coinage framework Rome permitted to select provincial cities, a privilege Utica retained jealously.
Vibius Marsus later became legate of Syria under Claudius, where he clashed repeatedly with Herod Agrippa I and was recalled to Rome around 42 AD.
