Interesting fact
The Antoninianus coin, which was issued during the reign of Emperor Aemilianus in 253 AD, features an image of the Roman goddess Concordia on the reverse side. Concordia was the goddess of harmony and unity, and her presence on the coin may have been intended to promote unity and stability within the Roman Empire during a time of political turmoil.
