| Obverse description | Radiate bust of Nero facing left, depicted with characteristic heavy features and curly hair surmounted by a radiate crown, the bust truncated at the shoulder. The encircling Latin legend reads NERO CLAVD CAESAR AVG GER P M TR P IMP P P, distributed around the periphery with a beaded border. The portrait style reflects the mature Neronian idiom, with an idealized yet individualized rendering typical of mid-first-century AD imperial coinage. The radiate crown serves as a deliberate iconographic marker distinguishing the dupondius from the as denomination. |
