Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Tiberius, who was the second Roman Emperor and ruled from 14 AD to 37 AD. He was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to strengthen the Roman state. The coin's design and the fact that it was minted in the city of Ilici (Tarraconensis) also provide insight into the cultural and economic exchange that took place during this time period.
