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 strengthen the Roman state. The coin's design and inscription, including the phrase "CLEMENS ET RVFVS C C A II VIR," reflect the propaganda efforts of the Roman government to promote Tiberius' image and authority.
