Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Pax stands in full figure facing left in the centre of the field, draped in a long stola and rendered in the classical allegorical style of Flavian state coinage. In her extended right hand she holds an olive branch, and in her left arm a cornucopiae, symbols of peace and abundance. The large senatorial authorisation marks S and C (Senatus Consultum) flank the figure to left and right respectively, prominently placed in the mid-field as required for bronze denominations of the period. The reverse legend PAX AVGVSTI runs along the upper periphery. The coin displays the characteristic broad, flat flan of the sestertius denomination.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in 73 AD when Titus held tribunician power under Vespasian, this sestertius belongs to the immediate aftermath of the Judaean campaign — the sack of Jerusalem had concluded just three years prior. The PAX AVGVSTI legend was not idle ideology. Vespasian's regime leaned heavily on the theme of restored peace as political justification for the Flavian seizure of power, distinguishing itself from the chaos of 69 AD and its four competing emperors.

RIC II.1 #608 is a Titus-as-Caesar issue, placing it within the co-regency period before his accession in 79 AD.
