[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2583047, member: 10461"]I've long been fascinated by short reigns, particularly ill-fated ones, and Vitellius being one of those from "The Year of Four Emperors", he certainly qualifies for that fascination. For me it was Otho that capture most of my enthusiasm, due to a [URL='http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k173/lordmarcovan/Roman%20Imperial%20Coin%20Collection%20II/RS035-Otho-preslab.jpg']coin[/URL] I owned, but Vitellius was certainly interesting, too. Here are the two Vitellius denarii I had. The first was from my old 2007-2008 "Augustus to Zeno" collection (my first novice endeavor in collecting Roman coins).
