Description
Nero, (A.D. 54-68), silver denarius, issued c.65-66, Rome mint, (2.79 grams), obv. laureate head to right of Nero, around NERO CAESAR AVGVSTVS, rev. Jupiter seated left on throne, holding thunderbolt and sceptre, IVPPITER CVSTOS around, (cf.S.1943, RIC 45, BMC 74, RSC 119). Flan crack, good fine and scarce.
