Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Nummus - Vetranio coin is that it features the image of the Roman goddess Concordia on one side, which symbolizes unity and harmony among the Roman military. This suggests that the coin was minted during a time when the Roman Empire was emphasizing the importance of military unity and cooperation. Additionally, the fact that it was made of bronze and weighs 4.07g suggests that it was a widely circulating coin among the common people, rather than a rare or commemorative coin.
