Rare antoninianus of Magnia Urbica, which was probably minted after AD 284, possibly after Numerian's death, when Carus remained the only survivor of the family and had to face the usurpations of Julian of Pannonia and Diocletian.
In the treasury of La Venèra, out of 118 coins of this empress, there were only ten of this type.
