Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Roman god Jupiter on one side, and the emperor Licinius I on the other. This coin was minted during Licinius' reign as emperor, which lasted from 308 to 324 AD. The image of Jupiter on the coin is significant because it represents the Roman Empire's official religion and highlights the emperor's role as a divine ruler. Additionally, the coin's bronze composition and relatively small weight of 3.33 grams suggest that it was a widely circulating coin among the common people of the empire.
