Nero AE18 of Sardes

A preliminary scan of a new arrival...

Nero
Sardes, Lydia
AE18 (4.1g)
O: Bust of Senate right ( :Greek_Theta:EONCYNK :Greek_Lambda:HTON)
R: Zeus standing left with eagle & scepter (E :Greek_Pi:I TI MNACEOY CAP :Greek_Delta:IAN :Greek_Omega:N)
RPC 3008

There are several of these specimens online, but what made this one stand out are the full readable legends on both obverse & reverse. First few letters of the obverse legend are weak, but readable in hand.
