Comment
Imitating C. Thalna (RRC 202/1a).Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it is an imitation of a Roman Republic Denarius, which was a silver coin used in ancient Rome. The fact that it was imitated by an uncertain Dacian tribe suggests that the Roman currency had a significant impact on the surrounding regions and cultures. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin indicates that it was a valuable and sought-after metal during that time period.
