Description: This is an opportunity to own a hard to come by piece of history minted between 66-67 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 Nero with legend. The reverse features Nero standing with legend. I Corinthians is generally believed to have been written in 53/54 AD. II Corinthians is generally believed to have been written in 55/56 AD. This coin was struck in Corinthia, Corinth, just after Paul wrote these letters to the Corinthians and is the kind of coin these early church members would have personally used. This is a chance to own a coin that is guaranteed authentic. Grading is subjective. In my opinion the coin grades a strong VG. Please look at the photo to make your determination of grade.
