No problem Doug, we haven't seen you much lately. Very interesting coin with that reverse type. Hope you start visiting us more often again.

Very nice bronze of someone I have nothing of. "Not high value" ? Hard to believe it ! I have never seen one and probably would have grabbed it myself !

A few more minutes left to post your coins of Gallienus, excellent coins every one. If there are no more entries we can more on to Postumus, the rare Laelianus and Marius, and Victorinus. Posting will end at 10 PM forum time tomorrow.

Postumus, AR Antoninianus, 24mm, 3.55 grams IMP C POSTVMVS P F AVG, radiate, draped & cuirassed bust right / HERC PACIFERO, Hercules standing right, holding olive branch & club. RIC 67, RSC 101, Sear5 10946. Lugdunum mint (wildwinds) "(M. Cassianius Latinius Postumus). A man of humble origin, Postumus was a soldier of great merit and was appointed commander of the Rhine legions by Valerian. In AD 259, actuated either by personal ambition or at the desire of his troops, he rebelled against Gallienus, and ruled Gaul, Spain, and Britain firmly and wisely for almost a decade. He was completely thwarting the repeated attempts of Gallienus to recover the lost provinces. In AD 268, however, Ulpius Cornelius Laelianus rebelled against Postumus, and although the usurper was quickly attacked and destroyed, the refusal of Postumus to allow his troops to sack Moguntiacum (Mainz), which had supported the rebel, led to his assassination."

Excellent coins everyone. Malamute you continue to surprise me with your collection. I didn't expect to see a Laelianus, Marius and even an Aureolus fantastic.

Excellent coins everyone thanks for posting them. Time to move on to the next group. I'm going to include the extremely rare Domitian II, it would be great to see one of his here. Also Tetricus I and Tetricus II. As usual posting will end at 10 PM forum time tomorrow.
