| Reverse description | The personification of Pax depicted standing to the left, draped in a long flowing garment, extending an olive branch forward in her right hand and cradling a cornucopiae in her left arm. The large senatorial authority mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is prominently placed in the field to either side of the figure. The legend PAX AVGVSTI runs around the periphery of the reverse field. The composition reflects the Flavian dynasty's programmatic emphasis on the restoration of peace following the civil wars of 69 AD. |
