<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 6414873, member: 86498&quot;]I have always liked the sestertii of Nero from the mint of Rome and I was fortunate enough to find this one. Nero Ae Sestertius Rome 65 AD Obv, Head right laureate Rv. Temple of Janus with closed double doors. RIC 267 25,47 grms 35 mm Photo by W. Hansen[ATTACH=full]1254018[/ATTACH]This issue is interesting in that while I believe the obverse on the sestertii from the mint of Rome are superior to those of Lugdunum. The image of Nero is more finely drawn and his features are more delicate and more skillfully rendered. However the reverses featuring the Temple of Janus minted at Lugdunum are on the whole more ornate, with many more&nbsp; details and thus more interesting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
