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 administrative and military reforms, and his reign marked the beginning of the Roman Empire's expansion into Germany and Britain. The coin's design also includes the name of the mint city, Caesaraugusta, which was located in modern-day Zaragoza, Spain.
