Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of King Totila, who was the leader of the Ostrogothic Kingdom in Italy from 541 to 552 AD. The coin features an image of Totila on one side and a depiction of the Roman goddess Roma on the other, highlighting the blending of Gothic and Roman cultures during this period.
