Comment
http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.9.tri.85.1Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Magnus Maximus, a Roman usurper who ruled the Western Roman Empire from 383 to 388 AD. He was known for his military campaigns against the Germanic tribes and his efforts to restore the Roman Empire's power and prestige. The coin's design and inscription, "REPARATIO REIPVB," suggest that it was issued during a time of economic and military reform under Maximus' rule.
