I think that many emperors of all periods would have themselves known by the propaganda that they showed of the reverse of their coinage with such things as their largesse and military exploits, and then of course in later times we find the winged victory on the obverse of much of the coinage had begun to represent a Christian angel. Then of course the reverse of all coinage has carried on as normal and indeed is still with us today.
