| Reverse description | Laureate bust of the deified Claudius facing right, rendered with characteristic heavy features including a broad neck and wavy hair crowned with a laurel wreath, indicative of posthumous honorific portraiture. The draped bust is presented in a provincial style consistent with the Caesarea mint's output under Nero. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait within a beaded border, referencing Claudius's divine status and titles. The reverse celebrates the dynastic connection between Nero and his adoptive father Claudius, who was deified following his death in AD 54. |
