Roman Coin – Tiberius (3D Reconstruction)

This is a hand-modeled 3D reconstruction of a Roman gold coin (aureus) from the reign of Emperor Tiberius, based on a reference photograph of an authentic coin. The model serves as a historical representation rather than an exact replica.

Original Description: The coin features Tiberius with the obverse inscription TI CAESAR DIVI AVG F AVGVSTVS, which translates to "Tiberius Caesar Augustus, son of the Divine Augustus." The reverse shows the inscription PONTIF MAXIM and a seated female figure, commonly interpreted as Livia, symbolizing peace and prosperity.

Technical Details and Print Instructions:

• Printer Type: A higher-resolution printer (e.g., resin/SLA or DLP) is recommended for capturing fine details.
• Orientation: Upright position.
• Print Quality: Expect some loss of sharpness in lettering on entry-level FDM printers.

Tips and Recommendations:

• Use the smallest possible layer height (0.1 mm or less) for FDM.
• SLA/DLP resin printers are strongly recommended for best results.
• Light sanding or metallic paint can enhance the coin's appearance.
