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 minted in Rome and features the image of Florianus on one side and the goddess Pax (Peace) on the other, with the inscription "PAX AVGVSTI" (Peace of the Augusti). The coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and widely used metal during that time. Despite its historical significance, the Antoninianus - Florianus coin is not particularly rare or valuable today, and it can be found in many coin collections and museums around the world.
