Obverse description Radiate head of Nero facing right, rendered in a naturalistic portrait style characteristic of early Neronian coinage. The emperor's effigy displays his distinctive youthful features with short curly hair beneath the radiate crown, the latter serving as the standard iconographic marker distinguishing the dupondius from the as. A beaded border encircles the design. The surrounding legend reads IMP NERO CLAVD CAESAR AVG GER P M TR P P P, running clockwise from the lower left.
