| Obverse description | Laureate head of Emperor Nerva facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed portraiture characteristic of Flavian-era die work. The emperor's aged features — including a lined brow, prominent nose, and thin neck — are faithfully captured, reflecting the realistic Imperial portrait tradition. The encircling legend occupies the outer field, with the emperor's titles arranged around the periphery. The coin's broad flan is typical of late first-century sestertii, with a green patina visible across the bronze surface. |
