| Obverse description | Radiate bust of Emperor Nero facing left, adorned with the aegis across the shoulder, rendered in the Alexandrian provincial style. The radiate crown features prominent diverging rays, and the effigy displays the characteristic fleshy portraiture of Nero's later reign. The legend in Greek characters surrounds the bust, abbreviating his full imperial titulature. The overall style reflects the distinctive blend of Roman imperial iconography adapted for Alexandrian coinage. |
