Bronze of Nero
« on: September 17, 2014, 04:41:08 am »
Dear Fellows,
I am applying again to your experience to ask about the coin on the pictures. To my eyes it looks like Nero. I do not know this reverse type. Can you please, give me any reference for this coin?

I am very grateful for your great assistance!

The capricorn with cornucopia looking back looks like Parion, but the lettering is strange. I can´t read the emperors name.

Thank you Shanxi and Pekka.
I found this reference on the cng coins, check the picture.
For me it looks more similar, I only can not recognize the star on my pictures.

The given reference is Nero. The head doesn't look same but the inscriptions.
