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 is a rare example of a coin that was issued during a brief period of Roman history when the empire was ruled by a single emperor, before the division into two parts.
