Additional information

By 60–61 AD, Nero's administration was still operating under the moderating influence of Seneca and Burrus — the period ancient sources describe as the quinquennium Neronis, generally considered the more stable half of his reign. The denarius coinage of these years reflects that relative stability, with consistent silver fineness before the later debasements that would erode the currency by roughly 10–15% in purity during the 60s. RIC I 22 belongs to a tightly defined tribunician dating sequence; the TR P VII designation fixes production to a single twelve-month window.
