gallienus DIANAE CONS AVG
gallienus, 267-268 A.D., mint of rome..
OBV: GALLIENVS AVG, radiate head right.
REV: DIANAE CONS AVG, stag walking left. X in exergue.

this coin is historically important because it is believed that this coin was minted to commemorate vows to goddess diana and invoke her protection of gallienus against the revolt of aureolus...  theres a whole series of these asking all kinds of different gods/goddesses for help.  when i get more of these " zoo" coins ill post them here!
