Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman emperor Trajan, who ruled from 98 to 117 AD, on one side, and the Greek inscription "ΜΙΔΑΕΩΝ" (Midaeon) on the other, indicating that it was minted in the city of Midaeum, which was part of the Roman province of Bithynia et Pontus.
