Nice patina and love the eagle on that.

 

Congrats Mat! That is a cool Gallienus Tet!!! I like the portrait and the victory rx is cool looking. I have been looking for right the right Gallienus tet for myself but do not yet have one.

 

This is what I have of Gallienus:

GALLIENUS:


RI Gallienus 253-268 CE Ant Hercules


RI Gallienus 253-268 CE Ant Milan mint Laetitia
( I believe that is a camel loogie on the reverse )...


RI Gallienus 253-268 CE Ant Abundantia

Gallienius' WIFE:


RI Salonina wife of Gallienus 254-268 CE AE Ant 3.61g 20mm Rome mint 267-268 CE crescent Deer Walking delta RIC 15

 

nice coin! he has some good looking tets doesn't he?

here's a wildwinds tet that may look familiar!

 

My only Gallienus is a silver Ant (still looking for that Sestertius...):

 

Last year I began focusing on silvered Gallienus coins. I still want to get a few Egypt minted examples but that has not happened yet. Here are couple of the AR types:
Gallienus / Abundancia


Gallienus / Germanica Max


Gallienus / Asclepius

 

A nice and interesting type @Mat
