Interesting fact

The coin , the Æ23 Drusus (14-37) from Italica (Baetica) made of Bronze weighing 6.73g, is a rare and valuable coin among collectors. It's considered a rare coin because it was minted during the reign of Drusus, who was the son of the Roman Emperor Tiberius, and it's made of bronze, which was a less common material for coins during that time period. Additionally, the coin's weight of 6.73g is slightly heavier than the standard weight for coins of that denomination, which makes it even more unique and valuable to collectors.
