4Lot-Ja-1 Close Out: Lot Of 10 "Age Of Chaos" Roman Coins

In the spring of A.D. 260, the Roman Emperor_x000D_Valerian was taken prisoner by the Persian ”King of Kings“ after his defeat at Edessa. This humiliating _x000D_capture, unprecedented in the long annals of Rome, ended Valerian’s reign, leaving his overmatched son Gallienus on the throne and a power vacuum _x000D_in the Empire. Unwilling to bow to the new Augustus, armies in the more remote corners of the Empire elevated their local generals to the status of Emperor. During the ensuing eight years, a period of_x000D_unimaginable chaos, the hapless Emperor sought to defend his dominions—in vain. The Historia Augusta gives account of the Thirty Tyrants—pretenders to _x000D_the throne during the chaotic reign of Gallienus. This is a lot of 10 coins from the Age of Chaos, two each of Gallienus, Victorinus, Tetricus I & II. Limited time only.
