Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman emperor Gratianus, who was known for his efforts to restore the Roman Empire's economy and military strength during his reign from 378 to 383 AD. The coin's design also includes the inscription "REPARATIO REPUB," which translates to "repair of the republic," reflecting Gratianus' efforts to revitalize the empire.
