Aanvullende informatie

Nero's Victory coinage of this period was tied directly to the Armenian campaign prosecuted by Gnaeus Domitius Corbulo, whose military successes between 58 and 63 AD gave the emperor a rare legitimate claim to martial glory — remarkable given Nero's personal indifference to soldiering. The settlement at Rhandeia in 63 AD, which installed the Arsacid Tiridates as a Roman client king, was the political event these issues were designed to celebrate and publicize.

Corbulo was later ordered to commit suicide in 67 AD, his victories quietly absorbed into Nero's official record.
