Note by UBS Gold & Numismatics:
This coin type was extensively used by Tiberius throughout his reign in the form of denarii and aureii. Whether the female figure is a depiction of Pax, Livia or Concordia is still open, although some scholars tend to support the idea that on January 16 of the year 10, Augustus dedicated the temple of Concordia in the name of Tiberius and his deceased brother Drusus. This might explain the depiction being used on a coin of Augustus (see above) and continuously on the coins of Tiberius.
