| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare, laureate head of Augustus facing left, rendered in fine portrait style with curling hair beneath the laurel wreath. The legend AVGVSTVS DIVI F encircles the effigy, reading partially around the upper and lower fields. The portrait displays the idealized yet individualized features characteristic of Augustan imperial coinage, with a strong jaw and prominent brow. The flan is slightly irregular, as typical of late Augustan posthumous issues struck during the Year of the Four Emperors. |

Struck in the chaotic final months of Nero's reign or the immediate aftermath of his death in June 68 AD, this denarius belongs to a group attributed to uncertain mint activity — possibly Lugdunum — during the Year of the Four Emperors. The SENAT P Q R legend was a deliberate political signal, invoking senatorial authority at a moment when Galba was marshaling legitimacy against the Julio-Claudian order. Whether the Senate actually authorized this coinage or whether the legend was purely rhetorical remains debated among scholars of the period.
