Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the image of Constantius II, who was the Roman Emperor at the time of its minting, and the inscription "FEL TEMP REPARATIO" which means "Happy Time Restoration" in Latin, suggesting that the coin was minted during a time of renewal or restoration in the Roman Empire.
