Interesting fact
One interesting 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 helmeted head of Athena, a common motif in Greek coinage, while the reverse (back) side features a Roman-style wolf, symbolizing the city of Rome. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex history of the region and the coin's place in the broader context of the ancient Mediterranean world.
