    Produced all across the empire for the 1,000th anniversary of the founding of Rome.

    Obv: VRBS ROMA - City of Rome
    Rev: anepigraphic

    There are a variety of reverses including: she-wolf, VOT XX, and two soldiers.

    There is a very similar series that looks nearly identical on the obv, but commemorates Constantinople and has an obv legend of CONSTANTINOPOLIS with the reverse of a Victory.
