Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 20 Nummi (493-553) from City of Rome (Ostrogothic Kingdom) made of Bronze weighing 10.87 g is that it was issued during the reign of King Totila, who was the leader of the Ostrogoths and ruled over much of Italy, including Rome, from 541 to 552 AD. This coin was likely used as a means of payment and exchange during that time, and its design may have reflected the cultural and political influences of the Ostrogothic Kingdom.
