| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Nerva facing right, draped at the shoulder, rendered in the naturalistic portrait style characteristic of Flavian-era imperial coinage. The effigy displays the aged features of Nerva with close-cropped hair beneath the laurel wreath, conveying imperial dignity. The encircling legend reads IMP NERVA CAES AVG P M TR POT, distributed around the rim in bold Latin capitals. The flan is slightly irregular at the edges, consistent with hand-struck Roman silver coinage of the period. |
