Salonina, Augusta 254 - c. September 268 A.D., Wife of Gallienus, Side, Pamphylia
|Side|, |Salonina,| |Augusta| |254| |-| |c.| |September| |268| |A.D.,| |Wife| |of| |Gallienus,| |Side,| |Pamphylia|, IA is a mark of value. IA is the Greek additive number eleven (I = 10, A = 1, I + A = 11). Some references and sales listings identify this type with a value of eleven units. Eleven seems quite an odd denomination. We believe IA should be read as 10 assaria, the A abbreviating assaria. Most of these IA coins were later countermarked E, devaluing them to 5 assaria. At the same time other coins were struck with the mark of value I (only, without the A), 10 assaria.
