Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman emperor Domitianus (also known as Domitian) on one side, and a depiction of the goddess Diana on the other. This coin was minted during Domitian's reign (81-96 AD) and is a rare example of a Roman coin that was produced outside of Rome, in the province of Galatia-Cappadocia.
