Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Procopius, a prominent Roman general and politician, on one side, and an image of the Roman goddess Felicitas (representing good luck or happiness) on the other. This coin was minted during a time of significant political and military upheaval in the Roman Empire, and its design may have been intended to promote the idea of prosperity and good fortune for the empire and its leaders.
