Interesting fact
The 1 Quadrans coin from Iguvium (Umbria) features a unique design on its reverse side, depicting a stork standing on a rocky outcrop, with its wings outstretched and a snake in its beak. This design is believed to symbolize the city's connection to the goddess Juno, who was often associated with storks and snakes in ancient Roman mythology.
