Galianus?
« on: February 06, 2018, 08:54:34 am »
So guys, it me again, sorry bothering you, I also have this coin, I've assumed this is a Galianus coin, on the observer Pax holding a cornucopia, but I've no idea of what is that on the right hand, there is a lot of similar coins but none of then is conclusive :

Thanks in advance!!

Reverse shows Uberitas, holding purse and cornucopia, not Pax.

Hi folks,

I immediately recognized the reverse type.

Here are my Gallienus coins:

I have a coin of Claudius II with an Uberitas reverse (scroll down, second coin):

I also have a coin of Trebonianus Gallus with an Uberitas reverse (scroll down, fourth coin):
