Otho, AR denarius.

IMP OTHO CAESAR AVG TR P, bare head right
PONT MAX, Otho, in military dress and with cloak flying,
on horseback right, brandishing spear in right hand.

RIC I 22, BMC 12.

Notes: The Otho on horseback type is my favourite. 
This coin shows clashed die damage on reverse - the 
line following Otho's forehead and hairline can be 
seen right to the horse's hind feet.
