Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman Emperor Claudius, who ruled from 41 to 54 AD, on one side, and an image of the goddess Diana on the other. This coin was minted in the city of Buthrotum, which is now located in modern-day Albania, and was an important center of trade and commerce during the Roman Empire.
