Comment
Source: Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman goddess Minerva on one side, while the other side bears the image of the Roman emperor Domitian. This coin was minted during Domitian's reign, which lasted from 81 to 96 AD, and it is made of bronze, a common metal used for coinage during that time period.
