The Gallienus Antoninianus with the ‘Abundantia’ reverse symbolizes prosperity and the emperor’s efforts to ensure the well-being of the Roman Empire during his reign (253–268 AD). The obverse features the radiate bust of Gallienus, emphasizing his divine authority. The reverse depicts Abundantia, the personification of abundance, typically holding a cornucopia overflowing with produce or scattering grain. The legend, such as “ABVNDANTIA AVG,” reflects the emperor’s promise of renewed prosperity despite the challenges of the Crisis of the Third Century. These coins conveyed hope and reinforced Gallienus’s image as a provider and protector, striving to stabilize the economy and secure Rome’s future. We have a group of these Antoniniani available in “Good Very Fine” grade. PLEASE NOTE: PHOTOGRAPHY IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COIN SUPPLIED
