| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Pax stands facing left in flowing robes, her weight resting on her left leg in a contrapposto pose. She extends an olive branch forward in her right hand, a symbol of peace and reconciliation, while her left arm cradles a cornucopiae, representing abundance. The senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is placed in the lower field to either side of the figure. The reverse legend PAX AVGVSTI arcs along the right field, identifying the deity as the Peace of the Emperor. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck in 74 AD while Titus held tribunician power under his father Vespasian, this sestertius belongs to the ideological program that followed the Flavian conquest of Judaea. The sack of Jerusalem in 70 AD and the destruction of the Second Temple provided both the treasury funds and the political justification for a sustained peace propaganda campaign — PAX AVGVSTI being one of its central coin types. The Flavians needed to legitimize a dynasty that had seized power through civil war, and projecting durable peace was essential to that project.
