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 "Augustus," which means "revered one" or "emperor." This contrast between Caligula's actual reputation and the title he is given on the coin may reflect the political tensions and power dynamics of the time.
