Beschrijving voorzijde Bare laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in fine classical style with long wavy hair secured by a laurel wreath. A kithara (lyre) is depicted in the left field behind the head, serving as an identifying attribute of the deity. The portrait is set within a beaded border, with no legend on this side. The flan is irregular in shape, characteristic of hand-struck Roman silver coinage of the late Julio-Claudian period.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in the dying months of Nero's reign or immediately after his suicide in June 68 AD, this denarius belongs to the chaotic interregnum now called the Year of the Four Emperors. The mint attribution remains contested — RIC assigns it to an uncertain mint, possibly Lugdunum, operating under the authority of Galba during his march on Rome. Within roughly eighteen months of this coin's production, three emperors would be dead by violence or suicide.
