Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Nepotianus, who was a usurper of the Roman Empire in 350 AD. Despite being a legitimate emperor, Nepotianus' rule was short-lived and his coinage is now considered rare and highly sought after by collectors.
