Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Constantius II, who was the Roman Emperor at the time of its minting, on one side, and a depiction of the goddess Victory on the other. This coin was part of a large-scale minting effort by Constantius II to promote his image and legitimacy throughout the empire. Despite its small size and relatively low denomination, this coin is a valuable piece of history for collectors and historians today.
