Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman emperor Tiberius, who ruled from 14 AD to 37 AD, on one side, and a representation of the goddess Epiphaneia, the patron deity of the city of Epiphanea, on the other side. This coin was minted during a time when the Roman Empire was expanding its territories and influence, and the image of Tiberius on the coin serves as a symbol of Roman power and authority. The fact that the coin was minted in Epiphanea, a city in the Roman province of Cilicia, also highlights the extent of Roman influence in the region. Additionally, the use of bronze as the material for the coin suggests that it was meant for everyday transactions and circulation, rather than being a commemorative or ceremonial coin.
