    Unknown - AE - Antioch, Pisidia (c. 22mm, 4.66g.) clearer.jpg

    I worked on my photography and got a clearer pic this morning.

    Circa 22 mm. (don't have a caliper) and 4.66g.

    I thought Caracalla at first based on the portrait but Wildwinds listings are much more similar to this, for Gallienus. It's hard to tell, but I think a radiate crown is present on this.

    This was one of the unattributed stocking stuffers.

    Sure, it's Gallienus
    I have a specimen on which the legend is easier to read

    Obv. : IMP CΛE R ΛGLL[OVNΛHHIR], radiate draped and cuirassed bust right
    Rev. : ANTIO - CH OCL, eagle on vexillum inscribed XX between S R and two standards.
    RPC X, — (unassigned; ID 63323)

    The legends on this coinage are usually blundered, the celator engraved the second letter first : "AGLL(ienus)" or "OCL(onia)". That's curious.
