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 made of bronze, which was a common material for coins at that time, also reflect the economic and cultural influences of the Roman Empire during Tiberius' reign.
