<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2854181, member: 76194&quot;]Today I took additional important steps towards my 3rd Century project with the acquisition of a few Gallic coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>First up Victorinus, who ruled the Gallic Empire from 269-272 CE. He liked to sleep with his mens&#039; wives, which led him to an early grave when an upset husband plunged a knife into him for making sexual advances towards his wife.This is one sharp little coin with a magnificent bust of Victorinus.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]677984[/ATTACH] </p><p>Victorinus</p><p>Ae Antoninianus</p><p>Pax Avg</p><p><br /></p><p>And I did also acquire a nice budget Tetricus I, whom replaced Victorinus and was one of the last two Gallic Emperors. It has a nice Salus reverse, and while it may not be the sharpest coin out there, it is a decent example of its type and it came with a bargain price that was too good to pass up.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]677983[/ATTACH] </p><p>Tetricus I</p><p>Ae Antoninianus</p><p>Salvs Avg</p><p><br /></p><p>And it kind of compliments nicely my recently aquired budget Tetricus II</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]677987[/ATTACH] </p><p>Tetricus II</p><p>Ae Antoninianus</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, post anything you deem relevant.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
