Interesting fact
The coin , a Standard circulation coin As (legend eba, with jug) from the Untikesken gens (Indigetes people), is interesting because it features a unique combination of symbols and imagery. The jug on the coin is believed to represent the importance of trade and commerce in the Indigetes culture, while the legend "eba" may be an abbreviation of a longer phrase or name. Additionally, the use of bronze in the coin's construction suggests that it was a widely circulating coin, as bronze was a common material for coins during that time period.
