| Obverse description | Laureate head of Emperor Nero facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style with characteristic youthful features and a laurel wreath crowning the hair. The bust is bare-shouldered. The Greek legend ΝΕΡΩΝΙ ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝΙ ΚΤΙϹΤΗ encircles the effigy, equating Nero with Apollo and honouring him as founder (ktistes), a distinctive honorific used at Nicopolis in Epirus. |
