ROMAN EMPIRE

GALLIENUS 253-268 AD

BI DOUBLE DENARIUS

Roman Age of Chaos 

CERTIFIED BY NGC

Obverse: 
Gallienus  facing right, wearing a military style drape and a radiate
crown, framed by the inscription "GALLIENVS AVG," which simply means "Emperor
Gallienus."

Reverse : VIRTVS•EQVIT / T, Virtus advancing right, holding spear and shield.

In Roman mythology, Virtus was the deity of
bravery and military strength, the personification of the Roman virtue of virtus.
The Greek equivalent deity was Arete. He/she was identified with the Roman god
Honos (personification of honour) and was often honoured together with him, such
as in the Temple of Virtus and Honos at the Porta Capena in Rome itself.



Virtus was a specific virtue in Ancient Rome. It carries connotations of valor,
manliness, excellence, courage, character, and worth, perceived as masculine
strengths (from Latin vir, "man"). It was thus a frequently stated virtue of
Roman emperors, and was personified as a deity-Virtus.







Publius Licinius Egnatius Gallienus ( c. 218
– September 268) 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 a number of 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.



Born into a wealthy and traditional senatorial family, Gallienus was the son of
Valerian and Mariniana. Valerian became Emperor in September 253 and had the
Roman senate elevate Gallienus to the ranks of Caesar and Augustus. Valerian
divided the empire between him and his son, with Valerian ruling the east and
his son the west. Gallienus defeated the usurper Ingenuus in 258 and destroyed
an Alemanni army at Mediolanum in 259.



The defeat and capture of Valerian at Edessa in 260 by the Sasanian Empire threw
the Roman Empire into the chaos of civil war. Control of the whole empire passed
to Gallienus. He defeated the eastern usurpers Macrianus Major and Lucius
Mussius Aemilianus in 261–262 but failed to stop the formation of the breakaway
Gallic Empire under general Postumus. Aureolus, another usurper, proclaimed
himself emperor in Mediolanum in 268 but was defeated outside the city by
Gallienus and besieged inside. While the siege was ongoing, Gallienus was
assassinated, stabbed to death by the officer Cecropius, as part of a
conspiracy.

BULKY & BUCKLING HANDLES
Color: Tan
The handles are bulky, and the leather buckles where you normally would hold it which is very uncomfortable. If you try to use the shoulder strap, the handles don't come off and get in the way when holding the purse against your side. Unfortunately, I first used it well past the eligible return date. I'm so disappointed. I would not recommend this product.

easy to access interior with many different pockets
Color: Desert
The back pack is awsome. It's soft, elegant and fits a lot of items...can be used in lieu of small carry on. I liked the openness of the interior area. The inside utility clear pouch was only 1 pouch, not 3 like the video. But I like it better with 1 pouch which leaves me options for larger items. The shoe pouch can be used for other items instead of shoes, if your interested.
