| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed, radiate bust of Nero facing left, rendered with characteristic fleshy portraiture and elaborately curled hair dressed in the Julio-Claudian court style. The emperor is depicted with a heavy neck and youthful features, wearing a draped paludamentum visible at the truncation. The surrounding legend reads IMP NERO CAESAR AVG P MAX TR P P P, distributed around the full circumference of the flan. The portrait reflects the mature Neronian artistic style as produced at the Rome Mint, with bold high-relief modelling typical of dupondii of this period. |

Nero's VICTORIA AVGVSTI coinage of 66 AD was struck at a moment of acute political anxiety — the Jewish revolt had just erupted in Judaea, and the Armenian settlement that this victory imagery references was already several years old, its propaganda value being milked well past the point of currency. The "victory" celebrated belonged to Gnaeus Domitius Corbulo, whose brilliant Armenian campaign of 63 AD had forced a compromise peace at Rhandeia. Nero rewarded him by ordering his suicide three years later.
