The Restoration coinage of Titus, Domitian & Nerva

I haven’t run into a problem so far. Here is one of my darker colored coins:


RIC Vol. I, NERO, As, Lugdunum, No. 543 (AD 66)
Obverse: Nero, bare headed facing right
Inscription clockwise from bottom: IMP NERO CAESAR AVG P MAX TRP P P
Reverse: Winged Victory, walking left, holding shield inscribed SPQR
Inscription: S -------- C (left and right)

You are right, it doesn't get lost in the dark background.

When there is absolutely no background, just the coin, I think it also looks awesome, as if it is floating, like this one with no background, which I posted in another thread:

 

Yes, that floating effect is very nice.

 

Thanks for clarifying this

 

Great coins and great post
