I'll start it off with this rather ordinary 3rd century antoninianus that I think is an issue of Claudius II (Gothicus). I believe the reverse legend to be VIRTVS AVG, and the closest I can come to a corresponding catalog entry is RIC 172 (Mediolanum), although my level of confidence in that identification is not especially high.

Billon antoninianus from the very rare Hostilian, youngest son of Trajan Decius.
