| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field occupied by a prominent civic oak wreath (corona civica), rendered with detailed foliage and berries, enclosing the inscription EX S C (Ex Senatus Consulto, meaning 'by decree of the Senate') in two lines at the centre. The circular peripheral legend PONTIF MAX TR P VI P P surrounds the wreath, proclaiming Nero's titles as Pontifex Maximus, holder of Tribunician Power for the sixth time, and Father of the Fatherland. The composition follows the standard reverse type established for this issue at the Rome mint, emphasising Nero's constitutional authority and his relationship with the Senate. |

Nero's sixth tribunician year — the window that dates this issue to 59–60 AD — places it precisely in the months surrounding his murder of Agrippina the Minor, his own mother, in March of 59. The imperial mint under Nero was already shifting authority away from the Senate, and the coinage of this period reflects a deliberate consolidation of priestly and tribunician titles as political instruments rather than ceremonial ones.
RIC I 18 is well-documented as part of a larger Neronian series struck before the significant debasement he initiated in 64 AD, when silver fineness dropped sharply and flan weight was reduced. This piece predates that reform by several years.
