Interesting fact

The Æ Quadrunx coin from Teate (Apulia) was used as a form of currency in ancient Rome, specifically during the Roman Republic era.

The coin's design featured the image of a bull on one side and the Roman goddess Roma on the other. Despite its small value, the Æ Quadrunx was an important coin in everyday transactions and was widely used throughout the Roman Empire.
