Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Augustus Caesar, the first emperor of ancient Rome, on one side, and a depiction of Attis, a mythological figure associated with the goddess Cybele, on the other. This combination of Roman and Phrygian imagery reflects the cultural blending that occurred during the Roman Empire's expansion into Asia Minor.
