Interesting celator's error on the reverse, substituting the Greek H (eta) for a Roman E. I like the way the stag is rendered, too. Post anything you feel is relevant! Gallienus, AD 253-268 Roman billon Antoninianus; 3.35 g, 20 mm Antioch, AD 265 Obv: GALLIENVS AVG, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust, right Rev: SAECVLARHS AVG, stag standing right, branch in exergue Refs: RIC 656; Cohen 924; Göbl 1626c; RCV 10345; Hunter 195.

Heres on thats very similar I have not yet attributed it yet, 5 coins were given to me by @Victor_Clark one attributed 4 to be attributed I have 3 of the four attributed this is the last of the four that I'm planning in doing tomorrow. By the way Victor thank you again . Thanks, Jacob
Nice! And how generous of @Victor_Clark to have gifted you those coins. You may be familiar with these websites already but I find this and this to be very helpful resources when it comes to attributing coins of Gallienus.

Great coin Roman Collector!!! A type that I have been hunting down for a while, but not yet obtained. It is my understanding that this coin type was minted to commemorate the Secular Games under Gallienus. Cool colletor error BTW! http://www.forumancientcoins.com/numiswiki/view.asp?key=ludi saeculares
I only have one coin of Gallienus and it is not from the same series. Egypt, Alexandria. Dattari. Gallienus, 253-268 Tetradrachm circa 267-268 (year 15), billon (23mm., 9.51g.) Obv: Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust r. Rev. Eagle standing l., holding wreath in beak; behind, palm. Geissen 2944. Dattari-Savio Pl. 273, 10547. Extremely Fine. From the Dattari collection.

Here is another Gallienus with from Antioch: Gallienus Silvered Antoninianus Antioch Mint 265 AD Obverse: GALLIENVS AVG, radiate and cuirassed bust left. Reverse: P M TR P XIII, lion standing left, bucranium (cow skull) between front legs; C VI P P and palm branch in exergue References: RIC 602, Göbl 1622d; RSC 843 Scarce. Size: 21mm; 3.39 grams
This one seems relevant. Gallienus Antoninianus Obv:– GALLIENVS AVG, Radiate head left Rev:– SAECVLARHS AVG, stag standing right; palm in exergue Minted in Antioch. A.D. 265. Reference:– Göbl 1626a. RIC 656 var. (bust right and SAECVLARES). RSC 925b. It should be noted that SAECVLARES examples do not actually seem to exist and this SAECVLARHS is the most common spelling with a SAECVLARIS variant being scarcer.
