Claudia was the daughter of Nero and Poppaea Sabina, Nero's second wife, who died during infancy in AD 63. Suetonius claims that Poppaea was expecting another child in AD 65, when she was kicked to death by the emperor (Life of Nero, 35.3). Both Cassius Dio and Tacitus support the claim that Nero killed his wife, though the bias of all three historians against Nero casts doubt over the reliability of their accounts. Poppaea may have died of natural causes, perhaps related to childbirth. Indeed, Nero bestowed divine honours upon Poppaea after her death and she was given a state funeral. This coin proclaims the divine honours bestowed on both women and is part of the only issue struck in the name of Claudia.
