FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3472 Posts	Posted Today 28M ago Wasn't going to make the effort it but looks like Galerius is getting the 'short' end Once again ! Poor old Galerius .... He never had an easy life If the 'legend' be true even Diocletian forced him to walk behind his chariot in his big Triumph ! That might account for some of his later animosity And if the tales be true Galerius suffered a most unfortunate (odiferous) 'demise' Well .... I digress Æ Follis Galerius Maximianus Cæsar Lyons RIC 17b AD 294-295 ? A bit rough around the edges ... But so was Galerius ! Obv C VAL MAXIMIANVS NOB C Laureate bare neck bust right Rv GENIO POPV-LI ROMANI Genius standing facing head left wearing modius Naked except for chlamys over left shoulder Holding patera and cornucopia No officina mark no mint mark 9.86 grams 26-29mm RIC VI 17b (Lugdunum) Once again no traces of silvering To all appearances Bronze !
