Interesting fact
The Nummus - Constantinus I (BEATA TRANQVILLITAS; Trier) (323) coin was part of a large-scale currency reform implemented by Emperor Constantine the Great in 306 AD, which introduced a new system of coinage that would be used throughout the Roman Empire for centuries to come. This coin, made of bronze and weighing 2.98g, was one of the smallest denominations in the new system and was used for everyday transactions. Despite its small value, the coin is highly sought after by collectors today due to its historical significance and rarity.
