Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Follis - Julianus II (VOT X MVLT XX; Siscia) coin is that it features an image of the Roman Emperor Julian II on one side and a depiction of the goddess Victory on the other. This coin was minted during Julian's reign from 361 to 363 AD and was used as a standard circulation coin throughout the Roman Empire. Despite being made of bronze, which was a relatively common metal at the time, this coin is still considered a valuable artifact among collectors and historians today.
