Comment
Source: Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denarius - Vespasian (PACI ORB TERR AVG EPHE) (71) coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases the Roman Empire's military conquests. The coin's reverse side depicts a personification of the Roman Empire, represented by a female figure holding a globe and a spear, surrounded by trophies and captured weapons. This design was meant to symbolize the empire's dominance and military prowess, and it was a common motif on coins issued during Vespasian's reign (71 AD).
