Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Antoninianus - Victorinus (PAX AVG) coin is that it was issued during a time of great turmoil and political instability in the Roman Empire. The Gallic Empire, which was a Roman splinter state, minted this coin during the reign of Victorinus, who was a usurper emperor and ruled from 269 to 270 AD. Despite the political upheaval, the coin still bears the image of the Roman goddess Pax (Peace) on the reverse, indicating a desire for peace and stability in the empire.
