Though Nerva was on the throne only a short time, his reign marked the beginning of Rome’s golden age. This radiant coin with his imperial image acts like a ticket on a time machine to that era. When we wear it, we are somehow magically transported—in our imaginations if not in body —back to that exciting time. As the very human portrait of Nerva reminds us, it is a very different world and yet one that is also strangely familiar. - (FJ.2207)
