54-68 AD Nero As Caesar Silver Denarius NGC VF 4/5 – 3/5
An attractive example of a early youthful Nero
Struck with a high relief to portrait, this example displays desirable “old world’ cabinet toning. A few minor old scratches and marks hidden under the tone.
The reverse EQVESTER / OR-DO / PRINCIPI / IVVENT, legend in four lines on shield with central boss, spear behind. “The equestrian order to the prince of youth”.
Third party graded by NGC VF 4-5 – 3-5, scratches
A harder issue to obtain, certainly in higher grade, a pleasing example that would suit a worthy collection, in the plastic or set free!
