<p>[QUOTE="ValiantKnight, post: 3603784, member: 44210"]Managed to pick up this lot of two antoninianii of Gallienus for $25 shipped recently, a pretty good deal IMO. I had mainly just wanted the FELICI AVG due to how nice it looked with all that remaining silvering, and was considering selling the VIRTVS AVGG since eastern antoninianii aren't really my thing and to get back at least some of what I had paid for the pair. But that one has been growing on me, so I plan on keeping it as well. I have no idea how common/rare these types are.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><u>Gallienus</u>, Roman Empire</b></p><p>AE antoninianus</p><p><b>Obv</b>: GALLIENVS AVG, radiate, bust right</p><p><b>Rev</b>: FELICI AVG, Felicitas standing left, holding caduceus and cornucopiae</p><p><b>Mint</b>: Rome</p><p><b>Date</b>: 260-268 AD</p><p><b>Ref</b>: RIC 187</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]964582[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><b><u>Gallienus</u>, Roman Empire</b></p><p>Billon antoninianus</p><p><b>Obv</b>: IMP CP LIC GALLIENVS P F AVG, radiate, draped bust right</p><p><b>Rev</b>: VIR-TVS AV-GG, Valerian standing on right, holding globe and sceptre, facing Gallienus, standing on left, holding Victory and sceptre</p><p><b>Mint</b>: Antioch or Samosata</p><p><b>Date</b>: 253-260 AD (during joint rule with Valerian)</p><p><b>Ref</b>: RIC 187</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]964583[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Feel free to post your Gallienus coins, or coins you originally didn't really want but ended up liking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
