[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 2766657, member: 75937"]Interestingly, according to Ian J. Sellers' [I]The Monetary System of the Romans: A description of the Roman coinage from early times to the reform of Anastasius [/I](p. 289), coinage in the name of Herennia Etruscilla (whose son, Hostilian, was adopted by Trebonianus Gallus) appears to have continued under Gallus, at least until the death of Hostilian. Here's a coin of Etruscilla from Viminacium (but not during Trebonianus' reign): [ATTACH=full]637253[/ATTACH] Herennia Etruscilla, AD 249-251 Roman provincial Æ; 12.67 g, 27.45 mm, 7:00 Moesia Superior, Viminacium, AD 249-250 Obv: HER ETRVSCILLA AVG, diademed and draped bust, right Rev: P M S COL VIM, Moesia standing left between bull and lion; ANXI (year 11 = 249/50) in exergue Refs: SGI 4220 var.; BMC 3.18, 32 var.; Pick 136; Moushmov 48[/QUOTE]
