Interesting fact
The Antoninianus - Florianus coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Florianus (276 AD), who was the last emperor of the Roman Empire before its division into two parts: the Western Roman Empire and the Eastern Roman Empire. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin throughout the empire and features an image of the goddess Aequitas (Equity) on the reverse side, symbolizing the idea of fairness and justice, which was an important value in Roman society.
