Interesting fact
The Antoninianus - Diocletianus coin was part of a series of coins issued during the reign of Emperor Diocletian, who ruled the Roman Empire from 284 to 305 AD. This coin was minted in the city of Siscia, which is now modern-day Slavonski Brod in Croatia. The coin features an image of the Roman goddess Clementia on the obverse side, and a depiction of the emperor Diocletian on the reverse side. The coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and widely used metal during that time period. I hope you find this information interesting and helpful!
