Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Greek and Roman influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a Greek goddess, likely Hera or Athena, while the reverse side features a Roman-style wreath surrounding a central dot. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex history of the region in which it was minted, Campania, which was colonized by both the Greeks and Romans.
