| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed laureate bust of Nero facing right, depicted with characteristic curly hair rendered in fine detail. The portrait presents the emperor in a draped fashion, executed in the naturalistic Julio-Claudian style typical of the Roman Imperial period. The circular legend surrounds the bust, reading NERO CLAVD CAESAR AVG GER P M TR P IMP P, beginning at the lower left and running clockwise around the coin's periphery. The portrait displays the broad facial features and youthful idealization associated with Nero's early reign coinage. The field is plain, with the bust occupying a dominant central position. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nero's aes coinage of this period reflects a deliberate reform undertaken around 64 AD, when he reduced the weight standard of the as and adjusted the broader bronze series — a move tied to the fiscal pressures following the Great Fire of Rome and the enormous expenditure on the Domus Aurea. The SC on the reverse signals senatorial authority over base-metal coinage, a constitutional fiction that had been maintained since Augustus, though by Nero's reign it carried little practical meaning.
The Lugdunum and Rome mints both struck asses in this period; distinguishing them can depend on subtle die and fabric differences not always resolved by RIC alone.
