Description: This ancient coin from the Roman Empire features the image of Emperor Gallienus on the obverse and goddess Aequitas on the reverse. Made of billon, it is an Antoninianus denomination minted between 260 AD to 268 AD from the period of Imperial Rome. Publius Licinius Egnatius Gallienus was Roman emperor with his father Valerian from 253 to 260 and alone from 260 to 268. He ruled during the Crisis of the Third Century that nearly caused the collapse of the empire. He won numerous military victories against usurpers and Germanic tribes, but was unable to prevent the secession of important provinces. His 15-year reign was the longest in half a century. Aequitas is the Latin concept of justice, equality, conformity, symmetry, or fairness. It is the origin of the English word "equity". In ancient Rome, it could refer to either the legal concept of equity, or fairness between individuals. The coin is authentic and a fascinating piece of ancient history that would make a great addition to any collection. C100
