Here is one that I'm having trouble with. My photo taking skills stink so this is the best I can do. I hope they are good enought for an ID. My thinking is that its Valerian.
16mm
1.3 grams

Thanks,
Ron

I'm going to go for Treb Gallus:

IMP CAE C VIB TREB GALLVS AVG

In the pics I can see what looks like 'SC' but I think its 'BG' - obviously the missing earlier letters could be a variation of his legends. I think the 'GALLVS AVG' stands out when you know to look for it.

The reverse could be LIBERTAS AVGG but I'm not at all sure, may need a bit of time spend on Wildwinds. It does however look like an 'AVGG' so its from when he shared power with Volusianus.

What do you think, does it look like that in hand?

I believe it is Treb Gallus and Salus reverse. Something like RIC 46a:

OBV: IMP CAE C VIB TREB GALLVS AVG, radiate, draped bust right
REV: SALVS AVGG, Salus standing left, feeding serpent coiled around altar, and holding sceptre. RIC IV 46a.

I can make out the S on the reverese just before AVGG

No draw. You win. Without you steering me to Treb Gallus, I'd still be looking. Good work
