Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the image of Vetranio, who was a prominent Roman general and politician, on one side, and the symbol of the Roman Empire, the she-wolf nursing Romulus and Remus, on the other. This coin was minted during the reign of Emperor Constantius II, who ruled the Roman Empire from 337 to 361 AD.
