The perhaps hellenistic foundation of Panias – named after a sacred cave of the god Pan – was refounded by Herod the Great’s son Philipp as Caesarea Philippi. In the time of Nero the city adopted the name of Neronias, cf. G.M. Cohen, The Hellenistic Settlements in Syria ..., Berkeley/Los Angeles/London 2006, 264 f., Lykke 113, and Meshorer, Treasury, 105 who dates these coins in the time after the outbreak of the Great Revolt. Lykke 112 annotates that Caesarea Paneas was Agrippa II’s main mint.

The identity of the veiled women is disputed. Whereas some scholars identified her with Livia, the wife of the first emperor, some others thought that she might be Berenike, the sister of king Agrippa and mistress of Titus. Both propositions are unconvincing. The coin was minted in the year 79/80, exactly in the time when Titus had minted a coin to commemorate his mother Domitilla (RIC no. 262).
