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 stabilize the Roman Empire after the death of his adoptive father and predecessor, Augustus. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the political and cultural influences of the time, and its preservation provides valuable insight into the economic and social history of the Roman Empire during Tiberius' reign.
