Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Emperor Nerva facing right, rendered in the realist portrait tradition of the Flavian-Nervan period, with finely detailed wreath and aged facial features. The legend encircles the effigy along the periphery of the flan, with typical irregular hammered striking visible at the edges. The portrait displays the characteristic elderly physiognomy of Nerva, with prominent brow, aquiline nose, and slight drapery at the truncation of the neck.

Aanvullende informatie

Nerva's reign lasted just sixteen months, making any issue from his principate relatively scarce by volume alone. This piece dates to 97 AD, the year Nerva adopted Trajan under considerable pressure from the Praetorian Guard — a political maneuver widely interpreted as his only viable path to a stable succession after the guard had effectively forced him to surrender Domitian's assassins for execution in his own palace.

RIC II 28 is among the more frequently encountered Nerva denarius types, suggesting consistent output from the Rome mint across that short reign.
