Message:: [QUOTE="Orielensis, post: 4546115, member: 96898"]Somewhere between Gallienus and Claudius II Gothicus, we have to fit in the Gallic Empire, which temporarily seceded from the rest of the Roman Empire. I am posting Postumus, Victorinus, Tetricus I and Tetricus II.  Someone else will have to add Laelianus and Marius, but I strongly doubt that anyone has a Domitianus II (there are only two coins minted for him known as far as I'm aware, both in public collections.)
