Interesting fact

The Julia Titi Semis coin was minted during the reign of Emperor Titus (79-81 AD), and it features an image of his mother, Julia Titi, on the obverse (front side). This coin was minted at the Temnus (Conventus of Smyrna) mint, which was located in modern-day Turkey. The coin was made of bronze and weighed 2.69 grams. It's interesting to note that the coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and political influences of the Roman Empire during that time period.
