Interesting fact
The Oretani people were an ancient civilization that lived in the Iberian Peninsula, in what is now modern-day Spain, and the City of Kastilo was one of their most important settlements. The Semis coin, which was made of bronze and weighed 4.6 grams, was a standard circulation coin used by the Oretani people during the 100 BC - 76 BC period. This coin is an interesting fact because it shows the advanced economic and trade systems that the Oretani people had developed, as well as their skill in metalworking and coinage. It's also a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Iberian Peninsula and the many civilizations that have existed there throughout history.
