Interesting fact
The 1 Quadrunx coin from Hatria (Picenum) made of Bronze weighing 149.14 g is interesting because it features a unique blend of both Greek and Roman influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a helmeted head of Athena, a common motif in Greek coinage, while the reverse side features a quadriga, or four-horse chariot, which was a popular symbol in Roman art and architecture. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex history of the region and the coin's place in the broader context of ancient Mediterranean trade and commerce.
