Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman goddess Providentia on one side, which represents the divine protection and guidance of the Roman Empire. This coin was minted during the reign of Emperor Constantine the Great, who was known for his significant religious and political reforms, including the adoption of Christianity as the empire's official religion. The image of Providentia on this coin may reflect Constantine's efforts to promote a sense of divine providence and protection within the empire.
