<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ValiantKnight, post: 2272661, member: 44210&quot;]This one is from when I went to the show run by the Ft. Lauderdale Coin Club back in September. I was in selling mode then but had to get at least one thing and this was it. Its my second Victorinus and the best of the two I have. Patches of silvering remain on the reverse and the obverse is attractive as well (aside from the silver areas the coin itself is mostly a dark grey color). Its one of those coins that need to be angled a bit to fully show the details. Interesting how much Salus is leaning to her left, kind of looks like she is about to tip over <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa429/LurkingNinja/victorinus_zpsoa7mx5rw.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Victorinus served as a soldier under the rebel emperor Postumus, who ruled the breakaway Gallic Empire. After the deaths of Postumus and his successor Marius. Victorinus was acclaimed emperor in 269 by his soldiers. During Victorinus&#039;s reign, Hispania, one of the rebelling provinces, reestablished its allegiance to the Roman Empire. He also sent his forces to capture Gallic cities that had not declared for him yet. Unfortunately for him he messed with the wrong guy by seducing the man&#039;s wife and Victorinus ended up paying for it with his life, his death occurring in 271.</p><p><br /></p><p>Feel free to post your Victorinus coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
