Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Caligula, who was known for his controversial and often tyrannical rule, yet the coin's inscription describes him as "son of the divine Augustus" and "greatest of emperors," highlighting the propaganda and political spin that was used to legitimize his rule.
