Gallienus (253-268) - Antoninianus - Jupiter seated left (VF)
Sale!
The reverse depicts Jupiter seated left, patera in right hand, scepter in left and eagle at his foot.
The antoninianus was meant to be worth two denarii, but due to the debasement of the coin it never had twice as much silver content. The metal is described as "billon", a mixture of silver and a base metal such as copper.
