Interesting fact

The Antoninianus - Probus coin was part of a series of coins issued during the reign of Emperor Probus (276-282 AD) to promote the ideals of concordia, or harmony, within the Roman Empire. The coin features an image of the goddess Concordia on the reverse, symbolizing unity and cooperation among the Roman people. This coin is particularly interesting because it highlights the importance of unity and cooperation during a time of political and economic instability in the Roman Empire.
