Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Tiberius, who was the second Roman Emperor and ruled from 14 AD to 37 AD. Tiberius was known for his extensive public works projects, including the construction of roads, bridges, and buildings, which helped to strengthen the Roman Empire's infrastructure and economy. This coin, which was minted in the city of Osicerda in the province of Tarraconensis (modern-day Spain), is a testament to the widespread use of bronze coins during this time period and the importance of trade and commerce in the Roman Empire.
