<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2842747, member: 76194&quot;]Friends, you all may remember my first Postumus...this beautiful Asclepius reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]673000[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Well, naturally now that I&#039;m moving into Gallic coinage, I am looking for coins of the Gallic Emperors I do not yet have, so I most definitely did not need another Postumus. Or so I thought until I saw this beauty:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]673004[/ATTACH] </p><p>Postumus, AD 260-269</p><p>Billon Antoninianus, 21mm, 3.5g, 6h; Lugdunum or Cologne mint.</p><p>Obv: IMP C POSTVMVS P F AVG; Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right.</p><p>Rev: MONETA AVG; Moneta standing left, holding scales and cornucopia.</p><p>Reference: RIC Vb 75, p. 343 (Lugdunum) or 315, p. 362 (Cologne)</p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t complain. I now have two solid coins of Postumus in my collection. Both have strong and detailed strikes for coinage of this time period where quality wasn&#039;t always a priority.</p><p><br /></p><p>Show off your Postumus coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
