<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tejas, post: 7018941, member: 84905&quot;]My favourite emperor is Quintillus, who ruled only for a few weeks in AD 270. Quintillus didn&#039;t really do very much, but the sources tell us that he was a good guy (who got a bad deal). </p><p>More importantly of course I like his coins. Despite the poor metal (this was the height of the hyperinflation of the 3rd century), the engravings are first class. I have 30 high grade Antoniniani of Quintillus in my collection to prove my preference for this particular emperor. Here is an example:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1273947[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Quintillus (270)</p><p>IMP CM AVR CL QVINTILLVS AVG&nbsp;&nbsp; //&nbsp; PROVIDENT AVG&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>S in field</p><p>Weight: 4.05g (exceptionally heavy for the issue)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
