This extremely rare gold coin of the Emperor Julian of Pannonia (283-285) was discovered in a garden in Novi Banovci. Julian of Pannonia, the usurping emperor, ruled the province of Pannonia, which housed the Siscia mint (now the city of Sisak). Aureus originates from the only issue of gold money of this emperor, minted in Sisak. The obverse depicts the bust of the Emperor and the inscription IMP C IVLIANVS P F AVG. On the reverse we see a woman with a bag in her right hand and a horn of plenty in her left hand - the personification of Libertas and the inscription LIBERTAS PVBLICA.
