Gallienus ?
« on: July 22, 2007, 02:04:14 pm »
I have made an id for this coin, and I am sure it is Gallienus, is this id correct. Can someone give me RIC #, and mint, or perhaps more details I have overlooked.


Obverse:IMP C P LIC GALLIENVS AVG, radiate draped bust right

Reverse: FELICITAS SAECVLI, Diana advancing right holding long torch in both hands.

Gallienus Billon Antoninianus, size 20 mm, It looks silver coated ?

Mint Rome, 253-254 AD.
