Nero. AD 54-68. Æ Dupondii (30mm, 13.15 g, 7h). Lugdunum (Lyon) mint. Struck circa AD 66-67. Lureate head right, globe at point of bust / Victory flying left, holding wreath in outstretched right hand and palm frond over left shoulder; S C across field. RIC I 522 or 601; Lyon 204; WCN 524 or 532. VF, dark green patina.

From Collection DF. Ex Stack's (8 December 1993), lot 2156.

MacDowell has demonstrated that the Victory type dupondii were struck during both series IV and V at the Lugdunum mint. In the absence of a detailed die study, the two issues are indistinguishable.
