Nice coin, but I'd say just drapery folds, not a chair.

Hi Eric,

Really interesting reverse and very nice bust...

I think Curtis is right.  It seems to be a chair, because, due to wear, it looks like the horizontal line is behind Pax, and together with the two vertical lines, the brain "recognizes" a chair.

But if you compare your coin with this example, it becomes clear, that it's only drapery.

Chair or not, it's a beautiful coin.
