Comment
Source: Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE)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 stabilize the Roman Empire after the death of his adoptive father and predecessor, Augustus. The coin's design also includes the inscription "TI CAESAR DIVI AVG F IMP VIII," which highlights Tiberius' status as a divine emperor and his position as the eighth emperor of the Roman Empire.
