For some unknown reason, nobody is allowed to see the reverse of the coin. I’ve searched the web for days without success.

The TR P III gives the date.
TR P = tribunicia potestas or tribunician power...held by reigning emperors and sometimes by their intended successors. Claudius died on October 13, 54, so Nero's third year of tribunician power would have run from Oct. 56 to Oct. 57.

Yes, I guess he was your average imp.

A few hundred years from now, someone will find a rare gold coin with Hitlery’s face on it.
The accompanying story will be something like: “Hillary Clinton, first Empress of the The American Empire. Known for playing her fiddle while DC burned and an accomplished murderer. Also known to be equal to the Earth God.

the inscription "NERO CAESAR AVG IMP.""Nero Caesar, Average Imp"? I would think he was much worse.
OK, serious question: how much would such a coin have been worth in its day? The article doesn't say, except that it would have been "extremely valuable," which is a given.
P.S. Why is it that every time I open a web link from FR, one of the ads on the page is anti-Trump? You'd think their systems could discern that spending money on such ads posted to someone coming from FR would be a waste.
