Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Vespasian, who was the Roman Emperor from 69 to 79 AD, on one side, and an image of the goddess Flavia on the other. This coin was minted during Vespasian's reign and was used as a standard circulation coin in the Roman Empire.
