I took some time to look it up, and it seems that there are some coins found at the sight that were minted LATER (Have no clue why it claims they're minted in 29 AD whatsoever) that appear to be hundreds (maybe a thousand) years after the ministry of Jesus. Though it is identified as Jesus Christ with inscriptions in Greek naming the figure specifically.

Bizarrely enough, the only mention of this I could find was on a stock photo-site, that claims that the image and caption came from Reuters, though I have yet to find a reuters story on the matter. https://www.alamy.com/a-rare-thousand-year-old-jesus-coin-on-display-at-the-hebrew-university-of-jerusalem-july-7-the-coins-which-were-discovered-during-an-archaeological-dig-near-the-sea-of-galilee-bears-the-likeness-of-jesus-and-has-greek-inscriptions-praising-him-the-coins-were-unearthed-in-october-in-archaeological-excavations-at-the-site-of-ancient-tiberias-in-northern-israel-but-only-during-a-cleaning-of-the-find-last-month-did-archaeologists-discover-the-image-of-jesus-on-58-of-the-82-coins-some-coins-also-bore-greek-inscriptions-such-as-jesus-the-messiah-the-king-of-kings-and-jesus-the-messiah-image382017674.html
