Interesting fact
The Antoninianus coin, which was issued during the reign of Emperor Quintillus in 270 AD, was part of a series of coins that were minted to commemorate the Roman Empire's victory over the Goths. The coin features an image of the goddess Victory on the reverse side, holding a wreath and a palm branch, symbolizing the empire's triumph. This coin is particularly interesting because it showcases the Roman Empire's use of propaganda through currency, highlighting their military successes and reinforcing their dominance over neighboring territories.
