| Obverse lettering | IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG P M T P P P COS III (Translation: Imperator Caesar Vespasianus Augustus, Pontifex Maximus, Tribunicia Potestate, Pater Patriae, Consul Tertium. Supreme commander (Imperator) Caesar Vespasian, emperor (Augustus), high priest, holder of tribunician power, father of the nation, consul for the third time.) |
| Reverse description | Standing figure of Pax, draped in a long chiton and himation, depicted in three-quarter view facing left at centre of the field. In her extended right hand she holds an olive branch, symbol of peace, while her raised left hand holds a caduceus — the herald's staff associated with diplomatic concord. The allegorical figure stands on a ground line, her pose graceful and classical in conception. The senatorial authorisation mark S C (Senatus Consultum) is prominently displayed in the field to either side of the figure, and the legend PAX AVGVSTI arcs around the upper periphery within a dotted border. |
