Description

★ Unique, soon to be published in RPC ★

Nerva. Comana, PONT. 96/97 AD (year 3). 26mm, 10.56gr.
Obverse: ΑΥΤΟΚΡΑΤΟΡΙ ΝΕΡΟΥΑ ΚΑΙϹΑΡΙ ΤΟ Γ, laureate head of Nerva to right. TO Γ under the bust is a rare way to state the date of reign, here the 3rd year of reign.
Reverse: bust of Mâ, assimilated to Enyo, goddess of battles, and often represented in Comana with a club attribute.

Coin without ethnic on the reverse, but clearly belonging to Comana because of the identity of obverse die with 2920 and because of the reverse type, Mâ.

RPC III, 2920A (this coin as a unique specimen)
Extremely rare.
