Diocletian, 20 November 284 - 1 May 305 A.D.
|Diocletian|, |Diocletian,| |20| |November| |284| |-| |1| |May| |305| |A.D.|, Juno was the chief female divinity in the Roman pantheon. She was the wife of Jupiter and a member of the Capitoline Triad. She had many different aspects, such as Juno Regina, Juno Sospita, and Juno Lucina, but here she is depicted as Juno Moneta, holding the scales symbolic of equity and a cornucopia indicating plenty. This surname was given to Juno because she counseled the Romans to undertake only just wars in which case she promised that they would never be in want of money. The first mint in Rome was within the temple of Juno Moneta. In 301 A.D., Diocletian issued his Edict on Maximum Prices in an attempt to curb inflation.
