Interesting fact
The Nummus - Constantinus I coin was minted during the reign of Emperor Constantine the Great, who ruled the Roman Empire from 306 to 337 AD. This coin was part of a series of coins that were minted to celebrate the victory of Constantine over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312 AD. The coin features the image of Constantine on one side and the goddess Victoria on the other, symbolizing the victory of the Roman Empire under Constantine's leadership.
