| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Nero facing right, with youthful features and short hair rendered in low relief, set against a flat field. The portrait is depicted in the provincial Roman style characteristic of Cretan civic coinage of the Julio-Claudian period. A Latin legend surrounds the effigy, naming the emperor and the local magistrates responsible for the issue. The coin exhibits the irregular flan and somewhat coarse die work typical of provincial bronze issues from Cnossus. |
