Interesting fact
The Semis coin was used during the Roman Republic and features the image of a bust of P. Ateius, a Roman consul, on one side and a horse on the other. The coin was minted in Carthago Nova, which is now known as Cartagena, Spain. The fact that it's made of bronze and weighs 7.3 grams suggests that it was a widely used coin for everyday transactions. Additionally, the coin's design and the fact that it was minted in a Roman province, rather than in Rome itself, highlights the spread of Roman influence and culture throughout the empire.
