Interesting fact
The Antoninianus - Quintillus coin was issued during a time of great economic and political instability in the Roman Empire. The coin's silver content was decreased during this period, which led to inflation and a decrease in the value of the currency. Despite this, the coin still features the goddess Concordia on the reverse side, symbolizing the importance of unity and harmony in the empire.
