I saw this on the Naville site a few ays ago and I really liked the look of it. I just received notice from Naville that I was the winning bidder. I have 2 LRBs, this will be #3. Somehow the portrait just spoke to me. I also really like the provenance-it is an Ex E E Clain-Stefanelli coin.

Please post your coins of Quintillus, or coins that just spoke to you and that you had to have.

Quintillus, 270 Antoninianus circa 270, Æ 17.5mm., 2.67g. Radiate and draped bust r. Rev. Concordia standing l., sacrificing over altar and holding double cornucopiae. C 17. RIC 13.
About Extremely Fine
From the E.E. Clain-Stefanelli collection.

I love the little circular curls that depict Quintillus' hair.

Nice coin with a strong portrait.

Super pick-up! Quintillus is one of my favorite obscure emperors.

No pics but I'll try to get some- I have two antoninianii of his.

Even with the legend being off flan, that has to be one of the nicest examples of his type that I've seen. Congrats.
Rest in Peace
