Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the image of the Roman goddess Libertas, who represents freedom, on its reverse side. This is significant because it highlights the importance of individual liberty and the idea of Rome as a free and prosperous society during the time of Maximinus II's reign.
