| Beschrijving keerzijde | Bare bearded head of Jupiter Ammon facing left, distinguished by the characteristic curling ram's horn emerging above the ear, a syncretic attribute combining the Greek Zeus with the Egyptian deity Amun. The divine portrait is rendered in a bold, slightly archaic provincial style, with a prominent beard indicated by incised lines. The colonial legend COL IVL AVG CASSANDRENS encircles the type in Latin script, referencing the Colonia Iulia Augusta at Cassandrea. The surface bears a consistent dark patina with granular encrustations across the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cassandrea — refounded by Cassander of Macedon on the site of ancient Potidaea in 316 BC — retained its colonial status under Rome and operated a local bronze mint issuing coins in the emperor's name for regional circulation. Nerva's reign lasted just sixteen months, from September 96 to January 98, making any issue attributable to his principate inherently short-run by definition.
Colonial bronzes from Cassandrea are sparsely documented in major collections, and die studies for this mint remain incomplete.
