I did not know that Victorinus existed until I saw your coin. A secessionist/Gallic emperor--interesting, and it makes sense now why the coin looks more barbarous than imperial. It helps me understand why Rome became focused on showing military might on their coinage--the integrity of their frontiers was falling apart.
Nice group! Some of these portraits are getting easier to recognize, such as Licinius.
