Interesting fact
The coin is a rare and interesting example of a bronze coin from ancient Sicily. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Greek and Roman influences in its design. The obverse (front) side of the coin depicts a portrait of the Roman goddess Roma, while the reverse (back) side features a representation of a Greek mythological figure, possibly Apollo or Hercules. This blending of cultural influences reflects the rich history and cultural exchange that occurred in Sicily during the Roman Republic period.
