Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Augustus, the first Roman Emperor, on one side, and a depiction of the goddess Roma on the other. This coin was minted during Augustus' reign, which marked the transition of Rome from a republic to an empire, and it serves as a symbol of the powerful and influential rule of the Roman Empire during that time.
