Macrianus. Usurper, A.D. 260-261. Antoninianus (3.37g). Samosata mint. 1st emission. Radiate and cuirassed bust right / AP OLINI CONZ (retrograde) ERVA (sic), Apollo standing left, holding branch and lyre set on ground. RIC V 6; MIR 44, 1728; RSC 2. Toned. aVF. Rare reverse legend, and of particular note, this exact reverse die is not listed by Goebl, suggesting a previously unrecorded die variant for the type. Macrianus was a brief eastern usurper of A.D. 260-261, raised by the army in the chaos after Valerian's capture by the Persians. His claim ended quickly when the forces of Gallienus moved east, leaving his coinage as a scarce, contemporary record of that short and turbulent bid for power. |
