| Beschrijving keerzijde | A multi-arched bridge depicted in schematic architectural elevation, showing at least three arched openings supported by piers, with a road or parapet rendered above as a horizontal band. Above the structure, a partial inscription is visible in the upper field, while the colonial legend runs along the lower periphery of the coin. The design commemorates a civic engineering achievement, likely a bridge at or near Buthrotum, emphasizing the colony's Roman infrastructure and civic pride. The coin also bears a piercing hole at the right side of the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Butrint — ancient Buthrotum — occupied a strategically awkward peninsula in northwestern Greece, and its elevation to Roman colonial status under Julius Caesar was partly a land-settlement scheme for veterans, partly a political maneuver that Cicero actively opposed and wrote about at length. The phrase EX CONSENSV on this issue reflects the local senate's formal ratification of the issue, a procedural declaration more common in eastern colonial bronzes than in western ones.
Nero's reign saw renewed administrative attention to Achaea, culminating in his theatrical declaration of Greek freedom at the Isthmian Games in 67 AD.
