The date regnal formula L Α (Year 1) appears in the field to the right, denoting the first and only regnal year of Otho's brief reign.

Aanvullende informatie

Otho's reign lasted 95 days before his suicide following defeat at the First Battle of Bedriacum, making any coin issued in his name from any mint extraordinarily short-lived by production standards. Alexandria was still operating under Neronian administrative momentum when news of Galba's assassination arrived, and the city's mint had precious little time to produce a meaningful volume before Vitellius was already emperor.

The Dattari 357 attribution places this firmly among the rarest provincials by reign-length, a category where even modest surviving populations represent a substantial fraction of total output.
