Hi everyone, I am a new member to this forum, and this is my first post.

One of my son's gave this to me recently, and did not have any information on this coin. Does anyone have any information that they can share? Does it have any value?

Thank you.

Emperor Aurelian..Reigned 270-275 AD
Obverse: IMP AVRELIANVS AVG, Radiate and cuirassed bust of Aurelian right.
rev: CONCORDIA MILITVM, Aurelian standing left clasping hand with Concordia standing right.
'S'in the exergue is Serdica mint.

The Obverse..
IMP (Imperator).."Military commander in chief"
AVRELIANVS....The Emperors name (V=U)
AVG.....Augustus (Emperor)

The Reverse..When the Emperor wanted to emphasise his harmony with the military, sometimes rather hopefully, a coin may show Concordia standing, holding one or two military standards, or clasping hands with the emperor. In this context the legend is usually CONCORDIA MILITVM. The Emperor is shown wearing a toga, civilian rather than military dress, to emphasise that the army is cooperating with the civilian authorities..."Ref Forum"



Authenticity...I try not to give an opinion via photos.
