| Reverse description | Confronted bare busts of Nero Caesar and Drusus Caesar, the two adopted heirs of Tiberius, facing one another at center in the field. The two youthful portraits are rendered in a symmetrical composition characteristic of dynastic provincial bronzes, with both figures depicted draped at the shoulder. A dotted border frames the design, and the encircling Latin legend C V I N C NERO ET DRVSVS CAESARES QVINQ identifies the subjects and references the quinquennales, the magistrates of the colony of Carthago Nova who issued the coin. The reverse design underscores the dynastic ambitions of the Tiberian period through this prominent double portrait. |
