Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Commodus, who was a Roman emperor from 180 to 192 AD, on the obverse (front side), while the reverse (back side) bears the inscription "TEMPOR FELIC P M TR P XV IMP VIII COS VI S C", which translates to "Happy Times, People's Emperor, 15th Year of Tribunician Power, 8th Time Consul, Father of the Country". This coin was minted during Commodus' reign and is a representation of the Roman Empire's currency during that time period.
