| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Eirene facing right, her head encircled by a wreath, the entire design set within a wreath border. The legend surrounds the bust in Greek characters, identifying the personification as the Augustan Peace of the Thessalians. The rendering is typical of provincial Thessalian coinage under the Julio-Claudian emperors, combining Roman imperial imagery with local Greek iconography. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Koinon of Thessaly — the federal league of Thessalian cities — retained the right to strike provincial bronze under Nero, a privilege that depended heavily on cultivating imperial goodwill. The magistrate name ΛΑΟΥΧΟΥ (Laouchos) appearing in the legend identifies the sitting strategos, the league's chief executive officer, whose name on the coinage was as much a political statement as an administrative one.
Nero's provincial bronzes from Greek leagues are frequently underrepresented in collections relative to his imperial issues, partly because survival rates from federal rather than civic mints tend to be lower.
