Comment
Source: Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a rare combination of two reverse types, "Roma" and "Jupiter," which were not commonly paired together on Denarii coins. This suggests that the coin may have been minted during a specific event or occasion, such as a military victory or a religious festival, and its unique design may have been intended to commemorate that event.
