Interesting fact
The Titum coin is interesting because it was used by a ancient civilization that is not well known, the Titii people. It's fascinating to learn about the history and culture of lesser-known societies, and the fact that they had their own currency and trading systems is a testament to their ingenuity and resourcefulness. Additionally, the fact that the coin is made of bronze, a durable and long-lasting material, speaks to the people's ability to create items that would last for generations.
