Interesting fact
The Nummus - Jovianus coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Jovian, who ruled the Roman Empire from 363 to 364 AD. The coin features an image of Jovian on one side and the Roman goddess Victory on the other. The coin was minted in the city of Siscia, which is now modern-day Slavonski Brod in Croatia. Despite being made of bronze, the coin was still considered a low-denomination coin and was likely used for everyday transactions.
