Coin (AE30) of Nicopolis ad Nestum under Caracalla c. 2th - 3th century

Editor: This is a coin, likely bronze, attributed to Caracalla, a Roman emperor. The coin is from Nicopolis ad Nestum. Given its worn texture, what whispers of history do you hear when you look at it? Curator: I hear the clink of commerce, the weight of power in a palm. Imagine the hands it's passed through, each a fleeting moment in time, each now an echo in this artifact. Don't you feel it too? Editor: Absolutely. I hadn't considered the tangible connection to so many lives. It’s amazing how something so small can feel so monumental. Thanks for sharing. Curator: My pleasure! Every object has a story, and listening is half the fun.
