    Description

    This is a very nice and authentic bronze antoninianus of the Emperor Gallienus (253-268), whose very sharp image on the coin is joined by a very defined Saturn with the legend Aeternitas on the reverse. This coin was produced at the imperial mint of Antioch. The coin is protected in an acid-free coin flip with an acid-free info card that lists the following in Latin:
    GALLIENVS AVG (emperor on obverse)
    AETERNITAS AVG (Saturn with a scythe on reverse with PXV in exergue)
