Interesting fact
The raised disc on the coin is actually a representation of the Roman goddess Victory, or Victoria in Latin. She is often depicted holding a wreath or a palm branch, symbolizing victory and triumph. This design was commonly used on ancient Roman coins to signify the power and authority of the Roman Empire.
