Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Nummus - Crispus (BEATA TRANQVILLITAS; Treveri) coin is that it features the image of a Roman emperor, likely Crispus, on one side, and the goddess Peace (Beata Tranquillitas) on the other. This coin was minted during a time of relative peace and stability in the Roman Empire, and the image of Peace was meant to symbolize the prosperity and tranquility of the empire under the rule of Crispus.
