[QUOTE="Multatuli, post: 2844538, member: 89266"]I really like this old batavian guy...but unfortunately I just have two, already posted on another topic. And I'm just looking for an Aureolus. Here they are: [ATTACH=full]673873[/ATTACH] RIC V 80. Antoninianus, Lugdunum mint (260-269 AD) Obv: IMP C POSTVMVS PF AVG Rev: PROVIDENTIA AVG [ATTACH=full]673874[/ATTACH] This coin I recently bought from Sebastian Sondermann (vcoins): Antoninianus, struck 260/261 AD at Cologne mint. Obv: IMP C POSTVMVS P F AVG, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right. Rev: HERC DEVSONIENSI, Hercules standing right, with right hand leaning on club, and holding bow in left hand and lion's skin over left arm. 2,94 g, 22 mm. RIC 64; Elmer 131; AGK (corr.) 25; Cunetio 2378. This coin has a great interest to me, due my "batavian" origins. This Hercules was apparently worshipped by the ancient dutch (batavian) people, as Doug Smith said, Postumus probably was born in Deuso, today Diessen, in Netherlands.[/QUOTE]
