https://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.8.cnp.135Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the image of a Roman Emperor, Constantius II, who was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to restore the Roman Empire to its former glory. Despite his efforts, his reign was marked by political instability, civil wars, and external threats, which ultimately led to the decline of the Roman Empire. This coin serves as a reminder of the transience of human power and the inevitability of change.
