| Aversbeschreibung | Bare laureate head of Emperor Nero facing right, rendered in the provincial Alexandrian style typical of mid-first century CE Egyptian coinage. The portrait displays the characteristic fleshy features associated with Nero's later effigy, with the laurel wreath encircling the head. A Greek abbreviated imperial legend surrounds the bust, distributed across the field. The flan is irregular in shape and the surface shows heavy patination consistent with prolonged burial. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A griffin standing or advancing to the right, with one forepaw raised, depicted in the Hellenistic-Egyptian artistic tradition characteristic of Alexandrian bronze coinage. The mythological creature, combining an eagle's head and wings with a lion's body, is shown beside or with a wheel, a symbolic attribute. The regnal date legend appears in the field. The flan is notably irregular and the relief is heavily worn, with the design elements only partially discernible. |

Year 14 of Nero's reign — the final year before his forced suicide in June 68 — places this issue at the precise moment the empire was fracturing. The Alexandrian mint, which operated on a closed currency system that barred Roman imperial coinage from circulating freely in Egypt, continued producing its own bronze and billon series even as the Year of the Four Emperors approached. Vespasian would launch his own bid for power from Egypt less than a year after this coin left the dies.
