| Obverse lettering | NERO CLAVD CAESAR AVG GERMANIC (Translation: Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus. Nero Claudius, Caesar, emperor (Augustus), victor over the Germans.) |
| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of Nero assimilated to Apollo Citharoedus, laureate and draped, advancing to the right while playing a large lyre (cithara) held before him. The large senatorial authority marks S and C (Senatus Consultum) flank the central figure in the left and right fields respectively, affirming the Senate's authorization of the bronze coinage. The surrounding circular legend carries the emperor's titles in abbreviated Latin. The composition reflects Nero's well-documented identification with Apollo and his personal passion for music and the arts. |
