[QUOTE="Finn235, post: 4951575, member: 98035"]Title says it all - this was a lot find, but it didn't even get a nibble at a very reasonable start bid - so into the collection it goes! [ATTACH=full]1190171[/ATTACH] GALLIENVS AVG, radiate head right PIETAS AVG, Pietas standing left, lit altar at foot, both hands raised. Utterly common, but easily one of the most photorealistic portraits of everyone's favorite 3rd century neckbeard, especially from this late in his reign. Let's see those Gallienus coins with nicer than average portraits - especially the sole reign issues![/QUOTE]
