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: Sol, radiate, standing left, raising right
hand and holding whip in left hand

Sol was the solar deity in Ancient Roman
religion. It was long thought that Rome actually had two different, consecutive
sun gods. The first, Sol Indiges, was thought to have been unimportant,
disappearing altogether at an early period. Only in the late Roman Empire,
scholars argued, did solar cult re-appear with the arrival in Rome of the Syrian
Sol Invictus, perhaps under the influence of the Mithraic mysteries. Recent
publications have challenged the notion of two different sun gods in Rome,
pointing to the abundant evidence for the continuity of the cult of Sol, and the
lack of any clear differentiation - either in name or depiction - between the
"early" and "late" Roman sun god.




Gallienus was Emperor of the Roman Empire
from AD 253-268, sharing the throne with his father Valerian until AD 260, then
as sole ruler until his death in AD 268. Based upon the inscriptions, this
Billon Double-Denarius of Gallienus was struck during his solitary reign, AD
260-268. The Romans typically used doubled letters to indicate plurality.
Coinage of Gallienus minted during his joint reign are inscribed "AVGG" (two
emperors), while later coins bear the inscription "AVG."





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.

For good oral hygiene
Color: Pink
For people who, like me, have undergone oral surgery, this works incredibly well—and for those who haven't, it works just as well, as it helps ensure that nothing gets trapped between the teeth. It is an excellent complement to your oral hygiene routine.

Soothing, moisture-locking oral coat that eliminates morning dryness without burning your mouth
Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 33.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Standard alcohol-based mouthwashes give a powerful blast of burning freshness, but they completely dry out your tissues and make a lack of natural saliva much worse. Biotene Dry Mouth Oral Rinse fixes this issue entirely by skipping the harsh astringents. It uses a specialized mouth-moisturizing system packed with hydrating humectants like glycerin, xylitol, and sorbitol. This combination creates a slippery, lubricating layer over your gums and cheeks that mimics your natural saliva to keep your mouth comfortable and damp. The daily utility of this formula is perfect if you struggle with persistent stickiness, difficulty swallowing dry foods, or a scratchy throat. It provides immediate relief that keeps working for up to four hours, soothing sensitive oral tissue and actively fighting the bacteria that cause chronic bad breath. The gentle, sugar-free fresh mint flavor leaves you feeling genuinely clean and maintains a healthy, balanced pH level in your mouth to protect your teeth from potential cavities. It is a fantastic, non-burning formula to use right before bed or throughout the day to completely wash away that uncomfortable, parched feeling and wake up with lasting comfort.
