Pax Redux
« on: August 16, 2018, 12:29:15 am »
Recently, I acquired a second specimen of the common seated Pax type struck early in Vespasian's reign. https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-148700

It interested me for a couple of reasons: the portrait and the reverse legend break.
