Interesting fact

The 1 As coin from Uncertain city of Central Italy, made of Bronze and weighing 313.80 g, is a rare and valuable artifact from the ancient Roman Republic. It was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Rome, as the city was expanding its territories and trade networks. The coin's design features the Roman goddess Roma on one side and a mythical creature, possibly a she-wolf, on the other. Despite its age, this coin remains a fascinating piece of history and a testament to the advanced craftsmanship and engineering skills of the ancient Romans.
