<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tejas, post: 8337535, member: 84905&quot;]I meant to get a coin of Hannibalianus Rex for I don&#039;t know how long. I have never been satisfied with the condition.

However, unlike his brother he received the rather unusual title of Rex, i.e. king, which otherwise was used to describe non-Roman tribal rulers. Hannibalianus was probably killed during the purge after Constantine&#039;s death in 337.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1478259[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
