Reverse description The personification of Pax stands in full figure facing left, rendered in flowing robes in the classical allegorical tradition. In her extended right hand she holds an olive branch, the universal symbol of peace, while her left arm cradles a cornucopiae, symbolizing abundance and prosperity. The legend PAX AVGVSTI arcs across the upper field, flanking the figure, with the senatorial authority mark S C prominently placed in the lower field on either side of the figure's base. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse design.
