Interesting fact
The Antoninianus - Aurelianus coin was issued during a time of great economic and political turmoil in the Roman Empire. The coin's design, which features the goddess Concordia on the reverse, was meant to promote the idea of unity and harmony within the empire. Despite this, the coin's issuance coincided with a period of civil war and political instability, which ultimately led to the fall of the Roman Empire.
