Severus II (A.D. 305-307), Follis Fine

Severus II (A.D. 305-307) is a very hard emperor to find as he is struck coins for less than two years. When Galerius elevated his childhood friend (Severus) to Caesar, Diocletian is meant to have said, “What! That dancer, that habitual drunkard who turns night into day and day into night?” Regardless, Severus was made Augustus after a year and sent to shut down the rebellion of Maxentius. His army defected, he was captured and eventually executed by the rebels. We have a limited number of his bronze Quater Follis coins showing his bust on the obverse and various reverses. They grade Fine and are priced accordingly. PLEASE NOTE: PHOTOGRAPHY IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COIN SUPPLIED
