Gallienus Help Please!
« on: February 17, 2007, 12:07:24 pm »
I have this as: RIC 667

Gallienus Billon Antoninianus. GALLIENVS PF AVG, radiate cuirassed bust right / VIRTVS AVG, Soldier standing left holding spear and resting right hand on shield. Asian mint. RIC 667, Cohen 1235.

Do I have this attribution correct? If so, what is the exact mint for this, because Wildwinds was not specific?

Maybe Antioch?  That is my best guess.

Hi,

Antioch is the one that Göbl gives in MIR which is preferable to Cyzicus that Elks suggests for the entire eastern series in his 1970's Numismatic Chronicle paper.
