Interesting fact

The Antoninianus coin , which features Constantius I and the inscription "VNDIQVE VICTORES," was part of a series of coins issued during the Roman Empire's "Year of the Four Emperors" in 295-294 AD. This period saw a series of power struggles and changes in leadership, with four different emperors ruling in quick succession. The coin was issued during the reign of Constantius I, who was one of the four emperors and eventually became the sole ruler of the Roman Empire.
