Romano-Gallic Empire, Tetricus II, Spring 274 A.D.
|Tetricus| |II|, |Romano-Gallic| |Empire,| |Tetricus| |II,| |Spring| |274| |A.D.|, "COLONIA AGRIPPINENSIS (Cologne, Germany - 50°56'N, 6°57'E), founded on the south bank of the Rhine in 38 BC by the Ubii as Oppidum Ubiorum, was renamed 'Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium' in 50 AD by Claudius in honor of his wife Agrippina Jr. who was born there. It became the capital of Germania Inferior in 90 when Domitian created the province, and hosted a major mint for the last seven years of the Roman Gallic Empire (259-273). The Franks took it in 355, but they were forced out in 356. After the Roman troops were withdrawn about 463 the Franks retook it, and it was lost to the Empire." - from Moneta Historical Research by Tom Schroer
