Interesting fact
The Antoninianus - Aurelianus coin was part of a series of coins issued during the reign of Emperor Aurelian (270-275 AD) to celebrate the concordance of the military, hence the inscription "CONCORDI MILIT" on the coin. This coin was made of silver and was widely used throughout the Roman Empire. It's interesting to note that the coin's design features a radiate crown on the emperor's head, which symbolizes the divine nature of the emperor and the power of the Roman state.
