<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 3193787, member: 87200&quot;]Gallienus ant. I would agree with you that for a short time Postumus was producing better quality antoniniani (at about 17% silver) than Rome or the East. I guess he had more access to precious metal or that the deficit of the central empire was so great that they had to resort to total debasement of the coinage earlier. My example below was supposed to be 17% silver so it till has a silvery appearance. However, by the reign of Victorinus there was similar debasement (see my 2nd example below). </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]825029[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]825030[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]825031[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]825034[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
