Interesting fact

The obverse (front) side of the coin features a portrait of a bearded king, likely a representation of the Roman Emperor Augustus, who ruled from 27 BC to 14 AD. This suggests that the coin was minted during the Roman Imperial period, specifically during the reign of Augustus or shortly after his death.
