Dear Friends,

I wanted to share a coin which I could not online, but it is referenced in BMC. I hope you will like it as much as I do.

Roman Provincial, Mysia, Parium, Valerian I, AE
3.76 g, 21 mm
Obverse: IMP VALERIANVS P F AVG, bust of Valerian I right, radiate, wearing paludamentum and cuirass.
Reverse: COL G IVL H PAR, Victory standing facing on globe; on her head, globe, which she supports with both hands.
Reference: BMC Mysia, PL XXII #15

Best wishes
Burak

Nice coin  :).

Following Isegrim it is also SNG Cop 303.

The BnF has one as well: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b8505040c
described in Mionnet Supp V-2, page 407, number 779: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k399115s/f136.image

High resolution scans of the BMC Mysia plates are available here:

Only the reverse is shown, but this looks like a die match.
