pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 7:59 pm I would look at RIC 181(j) rad dr. Can't see your second pic but it was there long enough to read VIRTVS AVGG - so joint reign. Report this Post to the Staff
pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 8:01 pm Correction, now your pic is up again, try RIC 455[j] reverse with Valerian I. Report this Post to the Staff
caesar77 Valued Member United States 356 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 8:09 pm Claiming, Galerius, but you are thinking Valerian? Report this Post to the Staff
caesar77 Valued Member United States 356 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 8:10 pm I mean Gallienus. Report this Post to the Staff
pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 8:20 pm No, the coin is of Gallienus. On the reverse Gallienus is pictured with his Dad Valerian I. Report this Post to the Staff

Valecrucis Valued Member United Kingdom 435 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 9:17 pm 456 has the longer obverse legend IMP C P LIC GALLIENVS P F AVG, so I think it must be 455 which has the corresponding correct legend without the PF. Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 9:34 pm I agree 455 is the best match. Report this Post to the Staff
Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 10/01/2014 9:38 pm Yeah, I focused on the reverse and forgot to verify the obverse inscription. Edited by Medieval 10/01/2014 9:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
