Description: This is an opportunity to own a scarce piece of history minted in 55 AD. This is a genuine coin of Nero, struck in bronze, and in the exact condition you see pictured. Nero is mentioned in the Bible(though not by name, just as Caesar) in Acts 25:10-12. The obverse of this coin features a portrait of a 17 year old Nero with legend on the obverse. The reverse features Zeus seated with legend. There are 25 specimens noted in RPC and only 6 in private collections. This is a chance to own a coin that is guaranteed authentic. Grading is subjective. In my opinion the coin is F. Please look at the photo to make your determination of grade.
