One interesting fact about the Denarius - Sabina coin is that it features an image of the Roman goddess Concordia on the reverse side, which symbolizes harmony and unity. This is significant because it highlights the importance of unity and cooperation in Roman society during the reign of Emperor Hadrian, who ruled from 117 to 138 AD. The coin's design was meant to promote the idea of unity among the Roman people and to reinforce the emperor's message of peace and prosperity.
