Interesting fact
The coin is not a real coin. The information you've provided contains several red flags that indicate it may be a fictional or fraudulent coin. Firstly, the time period (100 BC - 76 BC) is not a valid time period for the Carpetani people, who lived in the 1st century AD. Secondly, the weight of 8.7 grams is not a feasible weight for a bronze coin. Lastly, there is no record of a coin called "Standard circulation coin Unit" from the Carpetani people. I would advise you to be cautious when dealing with coins that seem too good to be true or have inconsistencies in their descriptions. It's always best to consult with reputable sources and experts in numismatics before making any purchases or investments.
