The example cited in Prof. Woytek's catalog 201aB (10 specimens), ex Lanz 72 (29/05/1995), ex Dr. Victor Wishnevsky Collection. Apart from its great provenance, it is also a very interesting type with Pax, draped, standing left, with torch in right hand setting fire to a pile of arms and holding cornucopiae in left. The coin minted in Rome 104/105-107. Is this Pax closer to a temporary peace after the first Dacian campaign, or perhaps to burning weapons after the final defeat of the Dacians? Personally, I would prefer the second option.
